We’ve been fancying doing this for a while and have finally got our act together… We’ve found a great glass fronted shop unit in the old Truman Brewery in East London, and will be running a shop there for 10 days in May. Please see the press release as follows for full info:
Leading industrial lighting and salvage specialists Trainspotters bring their wares to London for 10 days in May.
Pop in to sample a taste of an extensive stock of industrial lighting and salvaged vintage fixtures, sourced from across the UK and the former Eastern Bloc.
Drawing upon a web of contacts in the salvage and demolition world, Trainspotters have amassed an unparalleled stock of British industrial and communist-era Eastern European factory lighting.
With a host of high profile commercial and retail projects already supplied to, Trainspotters continue to work with some of the most cutting edge and influential designers around the world.
As an internet based company Trainspotters spend most of their days tucked away on a leafy industrial estate in Stroud, Gloucestershire. The temporary shop in Spitalfields represents an opportunity to meet clients existing and new, usually only encountered virtually.
The shop runs Friday 4th May to Sunday 13th May, 11am-7pm every day.
Last week we visited this vast decaying chemical plant in Hungary. It’s currently being demolished from one end whilst we endeavour to spirit the wealth of industrial lighting it contains out of the other. Whatever your take
