Hello My Name is Paul Smith at The Lighthouse, Glasgow
The Lighthouse, Scotland’s Centre for Design and Architecture, has announced that it will bring the world famous “Hello My Name is Paul Smith” exhibition to Glasgow early next year, launching to the public from 21 January.
Debuted at the Design Museum in London in 2013/14 and touring earlier this year to Modemuseum Hasselt in Belgium, “Hello, My Name is Paul Smith” invites you into Paul Smith’s world; a world of fashion, creation, inspiration, collaboration, wit and beauty.
It draws on Paul's personal archive, from the company's beginnings in Nottingham to its international prominence today. The exhibition will explore how the designer's unique creative intuition, together with an understanding of the roles of designer and retailer, have laid the foundations for the company's lasting success and offer a unique insight into the magnificent mind of Paul Smith.
Paul Smith, designer, said: “I''ve always had an affection for Glasgow based on the city's strong art heritage and it's wonderful link with creativity. Charles Rennie Mackintosh, the School of Art and just the whole atmosphere of the place is fantastic and so I'm delighted to be taking the exhibition to The Lighthouse, Scotland's Centre for Design and Architecture.
The exhibition begins with a recreation of his first shop - a compact three-metre-by-three-metre space that he opened in Nottingham in 1970. The display will also feature a makeshift version of the designer's office, known for being a myriad of curiosities, full of objects collected from his many travels, as well as artwork, bikes and books. Other highlights come by way of a recreation of his design studio, a collection of his greatest collaborations (which span cars to Evian bottles) and a look at his many unique shop designs from around the world.
The exhibition runs until 20 March, 2016. Tickets are £6 adults and £4 child/concession.

The Lighthouse in Glasgow, is Scotland's Centre for Design and Architecture. It was opened as part of Glasgow's status as UK City of Architecture and Design in 1999.
The Lighthouse is the renamed conversion of the former offices of the Glasgow Herald newspaper. Completed in 1895, it was designed by the architect John Keppie, of whom Charles Rennie Mackintosh was an apprentice. It is often mistakenly attributed to Mackintosh. The centre's vision is to develop the links between design, architecture, and the creative industries, seeing these as interconnected social, educational, economic and cultural issues of concern to everyone.
One of the key features of The Lighthouse is the uninterrupted view over Glasgow's cityscape available from the Mackintosh Tower at the north of the building, which is accessible via a helical staircase from the third floor.
There is also another modern viewing platform at the south of the building, on the sixth floor and is only accessible via lift.

Walking up a lighthouse in Glasgow Scotland!
We found this random lighthouse in the middle of Glasgow, no where near the water. We hiked to the top and found this amazing view. Surprisingly, this was free! Way to go Glasgow!!

Free to visit this little gem is right in the centre of Glasgow. Six floors high with exhibitions, a cafe, a viewing platform or for the brave and more able a beautiful spiral staircase to climb to this view. Well worth the visit.
