If you’ve been to London, you’ve probably already spotted the work of Camille Walala around town, but her most notable and last work is the fun-filled Walala x Play maze installation at the NOW Gallery in Greenwich. For this year’s London Design Festival (LDF) landmark project, the textile designer will be bringing her bright colors and bold patterns to East London’s urban jungle in the form of a squishy and playful, inflatable pop-up castle, right in the heart of Exchange Square.
