Charlie Luxton Design recently turned 18! So to celebrate we held our first summer party at Black Barn Studio’s.
We were also celebrating our recent AJ Small Projects Award for Sustainability, along with an exhibition of art from locally based artist Kelly Washbourne. Lots of fun all round, and a glorious sunny evening as well.
