The red carpet

Love the open plan reception area with an illuminated Ugo Rondinone?

Champagne plenty

Sir Alfred Gilbert's Eros for sale, asking £350k -
No bad considering one could recreate one's Piccadilly Circus in 
one's back garden!

Harry's Bar is here too -
Great place just to come for a meal!

Sir Terrence Conran chilling at Design Museum stand

Classic Cars

Speed Boat

Ghost.
Definitely not your typical "art" fair!

Property developers turn designers: Candy and Candy debut at Masterpiece

Gagosian "stand" is so minimal - no walls - just a shinny Damien Hirst and an iPad!

Robilant+Voena installed Philip Haas' Four Season (after Arcimboldo) at the outdoor enclosure.

Why walk?

Great service
