Proof that there are still moments of kismet to be found in London’s stretched property market. When Supriya Lele’s studio landlord offered her a good deal on an empty pharmacy next door, she jumped at the opportunity.
Fans of Lele’s work – her day job is as one of the capital’s most exciting young designers – need not fear; she is not pivoting into prescriptions yet. Rather, Lele and her friend and business partner Donald Ryan decided this would be the perfect venue to set up home for a burgeoning creative project. ‘It was much more than we initially thought about taking on. However, the opportunity was too good to pass up!’ says Lele. ‘Now we have a project space. Some would even call it a gallery’.
