Now Open: The Inaugural Basic.Space London
.jpg)
(LONDON, UK — 12 June, 2026)—Basic.Space, the curated, IRL-to-URL shopping destination founded by Jesse Lee, has now opened its inaugural London event at the Old Selfridges Hotel.
This marks the international debut of Basic.Space’s multi-city event series, which has seen debut US events in Los Angeles (2025, 2026) and New York (2025). Following an opening party yesterday evening and VIP preview today, the event will be open to the public through this weekend (13-14 June).
The London event takes cues from its iconic location, an industrial landmark in the heart of London. Inspired by the UK’s rich history of subversive underground culture, this edition is built on four pillars: design, art, fashion and sound, with a lineup produced in collaboration with creative director Juliana Salazar.
All of the pieces on view are available to shop both in-person and using the Basic.Space app, which features an AI-powered personalized feed, exclusive access to events, and personalized offers from the online marketplace.

HIGHLIGHTS
Completedworks
London-based Completedworks presented a selection of furniture and sculptural works, including a silver console and stool, a series of recycled glass sculptures, and a bronze chair and footstool. Founder Anna Jewsbury said: "We are delighted to be presenting a special selection of pieces with Basic.Space. They have created a platform that brings together design, art, fashion and culture in a way that feels genuinely interdisciplinary, which reflects how we think as a studio."
Curated by Marquel Williams
Marquel Williams curated a space composed with works by an electric group of emerging and established designers including Nara Lee (Pul Chairs and Bench), Marcin Rusak (table), Lewis Kemmenoe (Grain Forms), Pierre Jeanneret (Desk, 'Steno's' - PJ-TA-12-A, 1960 with Carpenters Workshop Gallery), and Atelier Van Lieshout (Courting Birds Lamp).
Samuel Ross
British artist and designer Samuel Ross presents a pair of new works 'FELLED LIMB - STRUCTURE I' and 'FOREIGN CENOTAPH - STRUCTURE II'. The functional seating sculptures are contemplations on Britain's dissonant reflection of multiculturalism.
Dilara Findikoglu
Fashion highlights come from Turkish contemporary womenswear designer Dilara Findikoglu, who presented a playful scenography surrounded by her uniquely crafted garments.
Telepathic Instruments
Telepathic Instruments bring their iconic Flower Shop to Basic.Space London, where they are offering a limited selection of Orchids - a chord-generating digital synthesiser designed to help songwriters find what’s on their mind. Alongside the installation, Friendly Pressure speakers and curated Béton Brut pieces shape the listening space.

Faye Toogood x Meritalia
British designer Faye Toogood presents her groundbreaking collection for Meritalia® called Crease, which questions what would an armchair look like if it were turned inside out, like a sweater? It includes an armchair and a sofa.
Roham Shamekh
Roham Shamekh, a multidisciplinary artist/designer emerging from the Middle East and fast growing internationally, challenges conventions in the art and design world, seamlessly integrating storytelling across diverse mediums. At Basic.Space London, he presents his Artichoke Candelabra, crafted from epoxy and resin, and hand painted.
YY
