Bubble London views





They said about the show :

"We go for urban modern and Bubble is very good for us. London has the right atmosphere, and that's where a kids trade show in the UK has to be!" Mogens Jepsen, Molo Kids
"Bubble pushed the industry a step further. The show is creative, curated and clever, offering an innovative mix of brands focused on quality with a keen design aesthetic" Daniele Vigliotti, Clements Ribeiro for Blossom
"I am happy that I made the trip to Bubble London. I found a good mix of refreshing Scandinavian brands and ultra chic-super hip English labels, as well as little treasures such as La Petite Luce or Shokay" Violaine Belle-Croix, Milk Magazine

Brush your teeth!




Jurgen Ostarhild is the man behind this season's Bubble picture (the little red hair guy with a megaphone in hands). Jurgen is a true P-j, which has nothing to see with a night outfit, but with mixing/manipulating images...a photo-jokey, yet you got it! We love the way that Jurgen looks at childhood in a very playful, sometimes naughty or surrealistic way. Go Jurgen!

Nobodinoz. Ask Bubble




Bubble knows one of the most avant-garde kids store in Europe. Nobodinoz in Barcelona, Spain. In a clean white space on calle Seneca, this is a true concept store, with products from across the board: furniture, toys, accessories, some clothes and lots of one-time collaboration with artists. We love the baby changing room that looks like a spaceship from Matali Crasset. www.nobodinoz.com

It's all in the name...






After we heard about Creme de la Creme a la Edgar, nothing could have been the same in the field of kids stores names! Specialist of nordic designers such as Marimekko and Holly's, and more classic names like Sonia Rykiel & Repetto, owner Helle Hogsbro Krag has a beautifully funky store in Copenhagen. With a background as costumier, she conceives her her shop as "a secret look inside a children’s universe full of humour, warmth and an inspiring view on the world." Because we all love to laugh: www.cremedelacremealaedgar.dk
