See you all there!!!!

Today sees the launch of the ‘Next Generation Tradeshow’, QUBIQUE which is held at the magnificent Tempelhof Airport in Berlin.

Now the big question is: Do we really need another Trade Show? There now seem to be more Trade Shows than ever and the pressure is on for manufacturers to bring new products out more and more often, after all, we don’t want to see the same thing again and again.

But it seems that Qubique has got one element perfectly right…it appears to be one big Party!! Opening Party, Closing Party, Dezeen Party….and it’s only on for 4 days. Ok, there are parties at every trade show but it’s generally all a bit spread out…too many parties and with it the decision on where to go, how many does one try to squeeze in per night and do you end up spending most part of the evening travelling from one to the next instead of what you are suppose to do: partying??

After all, the furniture is only really an excuse to get together, the partying is the real reason we go to the shows.

I for one am gutted I’m not going this year. Berlin is an amazing city, the venue is incredible….let’s hope QUBIQUE delivers what it promises and is here to stay (so I can definitely go next year!!).

I’m not usually one for controversy (yeah right) but there are a few things that drive me completely CRAZY!!! One of those is the current craze for nostalgia and the fact that everyone seems to be jumping on the bandwagon (just think the amount of Keep Calm and … products).

And queen of this current craze seems to be Kirstie Allsopp and her ‘Handmade’ programs on Channel 4. Don’t get me wrong, I applaud her for promoting traditional crafts and all things handmade ….BUT, when at the same time she has the most ghastly collection of product ‘designed’ for M&S (of which I presume none are handmade), I really want to doubt her sincerity!!! And if you’ve seen her ‘cry’ after winning the single cake competition in last night’s program…I rest my case!!!

So, the sun is shining and it looks like it’s going to be a lovely weekend in London Town!!

For the next three days (until Monday Morning) we are giving away 2 Egg saucers with every purchase of a Butter Dish.

That’s correct, you buy one of those:

and you’ll get two of those for FREE:

Just E-mail us with your colour preference in the Egg Saucers. They are available in Yellow, Mint Green, Orange and Petrol Blue.

Have a lovely weekend.

As you know we always love to hear from you, and this time we have a special request:

We’re looking for some new and exciting products to sell on Theo so we thought you might want to suggest some to us. Things you like and think we would also like and make available to buy here on Theo.

So, please send us your ideas and suggestions to hello@theo-theo.com and we will send you a present if we decide to start selling them. It really can be anything: You know we have a pretty eclectic taste.

Thank you!!!

We were recently asked to supply some Mechano Chairs by André Klauser for the ICON Magazine’s The Icon Build Off which took place during the London Design Festival.

Now you have a chance to own one of those bright and beautiful Mechano Chairs for a VERY SPECIAL price of only £ 100.00 instead of the usual £ 235.00. We only have 10 chairs available so it’s strictly on a first come first serve basis. As these have been used, there are small signs of use…but they are all in pretty amazing nick!!! To order one (or two)  please click here and choose Mechano Mix. Once you placed your order, please send us an E-mail to hello@theo-theo.com to tell us which one you would like.  Below are some of the options.

And remember…it’s strictly first come first serve!!!

We can only ship to a UK address. Sorry.

Good luck.

For the first time, Theo is leaving the comfort of his own home town and makes his way up north. And what better place to start than Liverpool.

We are sooo excited to be part of the Liverpool Design Show which is taking part this weekend (07 – 09 October). And to make it even better, the show is taking place in the magnificent St George’s Hall, apparently one of the finest neo-classical buildings in the world.

So if you are out and about this weekend, make sure to come by and say hello…and we’ll try not to attempt to do a Scouse accent….PROMISED!

Theo show is open from Friday 07th – Sunday 09th of October from 10.00 – 18.00!!

To celebrate the launch of the fantastic brand spanking new London Design Guide 2012-2013 we’re very excited that our good friend Max Fraser, who as you may well know is the person responsible for putting the Guide together, will spend an hour in our pop-up shop to sign copies of his new book. He will be in store on Saturday the 24th of September from 4 – 5pm.

If you can’t make it to the shop, do not despair as the book is available to buy online now!!

Our next Theo Pop-Up Shop will open its doors in less than 10 days, right in the heart of Central London.
