HKD in Margate

There is always something new going on in the studio. Visiting designers and Artists join us for projects or residencies bringing new ideas and skills. With visitors from Korea, Iceland, Italy, Lithuania, Holland and Margate imagine a reunion picnic, what a feast! We’ll let you know if it ever happens. Our current visitors are Rosa and Alfonso. An Architect and Artist they came here from Spain for three months and now as that draws to a close we are all busy setting up new projects to try to keep them here. On the food theme they made us an amazing lunch which included this soup – Salmorejo - recommended!
