08/Novembre/2009 // D-Light Show
This year’s Irish design week was the best ever; and the highlight of the week for us, and for many was the IFDN show of new work at the stunning D-light studios. We shared the space with Ronan & Erwan Bouroullecs Quilt series for Established & Sons and their clouds for kvadrat. Below are a few quick snaps of the space, our stand and some of the other goings on!

VaughShannon have been featured in a new book by former wallpaper magazine's design editor Laura Houseley. The book can be purchased from here...
" An explosively growing collectors market in design has fuelled the interest in young, emerging designers, whose work has become as highly sought after as that of established names. Around the world more and more galleries are opening to meet this new demand. The Independent Design Guide is the first publication to present these undiscovered talents and their creations to a consumer audience. 400 of the most exciting design objects by the future stars of design are presented alongside its website. For professionals and consumers alike, the book features cross-references that highlight new design trends, innovative use of materials and related objects."

You can see a short video of our debut at Tent London here. Thanks again to the Department of creation for creating it, and for producing such a fantastic tune which they aptly named “vs dream”. Is there anything they can’t do?
Hello and welcome to the updated and refreshed vaugh|shannon website. As much as we loved the original site, we felt that a change was necessary in line with our commitment to providing fresh and innovative designs. The new-look site has also been designed to cater for the growing number of visitos to the site. We would also like to thank to the Department of Creation - their commitment to our vision for the website was unparalleled and they definitely exceeded our expectations!
We have been super busy over the past couple of months, and there has been lots of development work going on with all our products (and some exciting new ones!). We should have an update out to everybody we met at Tent London and everyone since, so keep an eye out for it. If you want to be kept in the loop you can subscribe to our mailing list.
