Like
recalcitrant kidults, show me one real
city-dweller who, when teased with the
first hints of fine weather, can resist
cracking open a six pack on a green patch
with a handful of friends and an al-fresco
picnic of M&S's finest. Which is why London's
cultural world is working double-time
to keep us happily engaged indoors.
To help ease you back into the room, how's about an interior that feels just like the great outdoors? It might sound surprising, but the Natural History Museum is currently holding the world's most exquisite live butterflies. And they're simply incredible, and absolutely one for more than just the kids.
Even
being indoors can be wonderful -
especially if you’re putting yourself
inside one of Le Corbusier's spaces
at the Barbican Gallery. Meanwhile,
inspiring you to get out and do
it for yourself on a super-low budget,
Shifty is a must-see of winging-it
film-making, or you can seek DIY
inspiration from Glaswegian artist
Luke Fowler’s cinematic collages.
Just ‘cause it’s inside doesn’t
mean it has to be boring.
