Ana Bridgewater’s most recent installation at Clerkenwell Design Week marked a significant evolution in her practice, bringing together her long practice with porcelain and her exploration of light. At the centre of this presentation was Kubica, a modular lighting system capable of generating a wide range of volumes. Designed to adapt to different architectural interiors, the piece reflects both structural precision and biophilic design.

Looking ahead, Bridgewater is preparing a new light installation within the historic cells of Clerkenwell Prison, a site that is exceptionally opened to the public only during the festival. Situated within the crypt, the project will respond directly to the spatial and atmospheric conditions of the underground architecture.
This upcoming work continues her artistic exploration of how sculpture and light can transform perception and emotion within a space. It also reinforces her belief that design should remain accessible and meaningful beyond elite contexts. Her installations reflect a personal commitment not only to artistic research, but also to broader environmental and social concerns.

Behind the scenes: my latest pieces were created through a collaborative process at Lowpoly Studio in Spain less than a month ago. It was a long process of test and error, but in the end I had a lot of fun. Gianluca generated the G-code for the top, and I really love the final result. What are your thoughts?

My last creation is a glass and porcelain symbiosis: After the war in Okinawa, glass artisans worked with discarded material from American military bases waste like coca cola glass bottles.
Air bubbles, considered mistakes by Japanese Traditional Crafts—became traces of resilience. This piece honours those utilitarian, Mingei-rooted objects, and Okinawa itself: an island once surrounded by coral reefs, now over 90% lost to human impact.

All the benefits will be donated to .ltd a coral restoration and preservation facility in Okinawa and supports Okinawa glass craft.

Anon from Anonymous. Rooted in tradition, slow craft, and ecological awareness, each piece is a unique.

Despite breaking my two arms I am delighted to share that I will be at Collect represented by Ruup and Form. DM for more information in how to attend or collect.
A reminder that craft needs attentive observation, as it shapes the now of our daily lives. I invite you to surround yourself with meaningful objects.

A milestone for craft, design, and gender equality. The Spanish Embassy in the UK has named its first-ever female ambassador in the UK, considered the oldest of Spanish embassies in the world, which has been led by male counterparts for centuries until now. My installation of more than 130 porcelain lights in 3 different styles for the various areas announced the new light that this embassy would encompass, and it is a great honour to be part of the Spanish Patrimony. This project was designed using cutting-edge technology aligned with porcelain craftsmanship. The effect is a blend of tradition and innovation coming together in this wonderful building in London.

I’m excited to let you know that I will be exhibiting with Material Matters in Copenhagen for the first time.
Here is the info:
Material Intelligence at the Heart of 3daysofdesign
18–20 June 2025 | Gammel Dok, Christianshavn

This summer, Material Matters makes its international debut in the Danish capital, joining the city-wide celebration of creativity that is 3daysofdesign. From 18–20 June, we take up residence in the striking Gammel Dok building — home to the Ukraine House in Denmark — to present a curated showcase of material innovation, craftsmanship, and design-led thinking.

Set within the Christianshavn district — a historic area once home to artisans and makers, now a thriving design hub — the Copenhagen edition of our fair invites visitors to explore the power and potential of materials in contemporary design.

New Wave Lamp is a design where the packaging becomes part of the lamp. Inspired by tomobako craftsmanship, the box itself serves as a table lamp, blending timeless elegance with sustainability. Designed to last a lifetime, all components can be disassembled, recycled, or are biodegradable—a piece for those who value both design and responsibility.

Craft in the Digital Age-Shall we find a new name for digital crafts, or should we keep calling it simply craft? Craft has always been technological, it evolves with tools, from hand-carving to digital fabrication. As we integrate new processes, should we update the term to reflect our era, or does craft already encompass both tradition and innovation? What do you think?
