Inspired by the Banksy film Exit Through The Gift Shop, I decided to take photos of the graffiti around Brooklyn. I’m not quite sure who created each piece but they are beautiful just the same.

January is a tough month in London. If the sun wins its battle with the all consuming greyness, it’s gone by 4.37pm sharp.

This well-hidden tiny Tokyo living room of a restaurant is one of those typical New York hotspots that loves the fact it’s so secret. Pass through the hidden door at the back of the Japanese butcher and you’ll find yourself in a delightful, 25 seat den where you’ll have some of the best Japanese food [...]

With a dream location right in the middle of Soho, The Soho House owned Dean Street Townhouse is my favourite of the many great hotels in London.
