H&M and Ingka Group have opened the Atelier100 space in West London. The space will include designers and creatives who live within 100 kilometers of the city. Atelier100’s newest mission is to establish a "hyper-local" and sustainable approach to retail, and as a result, all of the products in the space will be made with locally sourced materials.
The creatives featured at Atelier100 will receive mentorship from industry professionals and a cash benefit to help them with future endeavors. Atelier100 upcycled items from old retail stores that held the space previously, designing a kiosk that uses newspaper motifs to “encourage conversations” and promote the work of the designers.
The Atelier100 space is located in London on King St at the Livat Hammersmith.
