The list of things to do in London is endless. It doesn’t matter how many times you visit it, you’ve never seen it all in London. There’s always something new, from a pop-up burger joint in East London to a blockbuster exhibition at one of London’s galleries. There’s something different to experience every day in London.
For now I leave here the Best Design and Arts Galleries that you should not miss in this century city.
Roca London Gallery
Roca London Gallery is a space designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, where you can enjoy a unique visual and interactive experience with Roca, the leading global bathroom brand. Design, innovation, sustainability and wellbeing are the hallmarks of Roca’s identity and the new Gallery presents information relating to these values to visitors through an evolving experience.

David Gill broke new ground in championing the work of designers who have become world famous, from Marc Newson to Tom Dixon and Ron Arad. His latest gallery in St James’s demonstrates the significant role he has played in changing the status and perception of contemporary design internationally.
