Nicholas Alexander worked in collaboration with designer Alexander Mulligan to create a site-specific installation, at J+A Cafe during Clerkenwell Design Week, May 2013, and into June.
J+A CafĂ©’s outdoor courtyard area would have once been a busy thoroughfare for cattle en-route to Smithfield market. We responded to this old area of London and the history behind its ancient Drovers by designing an architectural structure that illustrates the narrative, movement and energy which would have existed on those grounds many years ago.
