This year‘s London Design Festival is a particularly auspicious event for B&B Italia. It marks the tenth anniversary of the opening of the Italian design house‘s London store.

For the LDF, B&B Italia will be unveiling its 2011 collection, which will include pieces by Antonio Citterio, Patricia Urquiola, Jeffrey Bernett, Vincent Van Duysen, and Gabriele and Oscar Buratti.

And to mark the anniversary B&B Italia has asked its art, design, and journalism friends to send mementos, photographs, sketches and personal messages to be exhibited in the store. Contributors include Zaha Hadid, Tony Chambers, Michelle Ogundehin and Libby Sellers.
