Rebel, Rebel

Many galleries have extended their exhibition dates so take advantage and keep our arts culture alive. The resilient jewel of a space, MK Gallery, has also offered half price tickets until the end of August so you can explore the subversive and irreverent spirit of the Memphis Group whose bold and playful aesthetic pushed boundaries and sparked a new era in international design. With over 150 of the international design collective’s most significant works on display this exhibition is a must-visit.

Check out our blog here that goes into more detail.

Property Staging

Selling a property? Our property staging service is now in its sixth year where we create an aspirational setting with iconic midcentury furniture, antiques, art, textiles, stand out storytelling pieces and contemporary design and leave property owners, architects and developers with it for as long as it takes them to bag a stunning offer.

Its not just Million Dollar Listings that benefit. Believe us staging works and we have some very happy customers.

'Modern Shows® are a rare breed, very personable, very pragmatic and a great eye for design and detail. Their thoughtful, considered approach has really embellished our properties. It has been a joy working with them.’ Nick Glendinning, Nest Development

Here is what our last customer says:

"I found the process liberating.I had become stuck in my thinking; knowing there were areas of our home that did not work and that were clumsy. Your comprehensive notes, hints and tips alongside web addresses to look at ideas in detail were so helpful my hard copy is now dog-eared. I had not even thought of re-doing the floors but your idea of terrazzo tiling spread throughout kitchen, living and dining areas and hallways has taken hold and hopefully we can achieve something special.It is so exciting, I can see where we are heading and that our home will benefit."
