Barbican Shop has revealed details of its collections and ranges for Autumn/Winter 2025, featuring exclusive commissions from acclaimed designers and makers, stylish and creative gifts inspired by the Barbican’s art and culture, and fashion and homeware items to accompany Barbican Art Gallery’s new Dirty Looks exhibition.

Designers featured across the new ranges include:

• Chalk Jewellery: a London-based design studio that has created an exclusive jewellery collection that merges the Barbican's elegant architectural elements with high-quality design
   
• Brass and Bold: a bespoke brass and larvikite stone jewellery collection handmade exclusively for the Barbican by Elsa Gomez in her workshop in East London, with shapes echoing the architectural domes and curvatures found in the Barbican building
   
• Elvis and Kresse: rescuing raw materials including decommissioned fire hoses and transforming them into innovative lifestyle accessories
   
• Concrete Jungle: hand casting brightly coloured concrete in a range of desirable homewares
   
• Space-Play: championing Brutalist design through a range of miniature concrete models that portray and celebrate Brutalist buildings
   
• Emily Frances Barrett: an artist and jeweller who celebrates the beauty of decay, elevating natural and found objects through her practice from her studio in Haggerston

Located on Levels G and M of the Barbican Centre, and also available via an online store at shop.barbican.org.uk, Barbican Shop offers an exciting selection of design-led gifts, and purchases made at the shop directly support the arts and learning activities of the Barbican.
