This week's picks for London architecture and design events

John Pawson On Colour | 21 November

John Pawson's minimalist style is not perhaps the first to spring to mind when one things about colour.  Pawson, known for his clean and crisp architecture, will be joined on the stage by photographer Michael Craig-Martin to discuss the importance and expression of colour in photography, and its relation to architectural design.

Opening this week is The Design Museum's latest exhibition focused on the design journey behind the Ferrari brand. History and design are interwoven here, with models, diaries, sketches and interviews telling the story of this design giant's fascinating past. 

Winter Wonderland

And

Skate at Somerset House

For the scrooges among us, the opening of Christmas fairs this week may seem too early, however for those seeking to bring light to a dark November evening, these huge names in the Christmas calendar could be just the thing. Winter Wonderland and Somerset House Skate return to bring cheer to a cold evening. This year's skating at Somerset House will be open late, with the new additions of DJs to this fantastic, iconic setting.
