Bombay Sapphire at the London Design Festival:
The Tournament by Jaime Hayón

September 24th, 2009

In the second of our movies commissioned by Bombay Sapphire during London Design Festival, designer Jaime Hayón describes The Tournament, his giant chess set installation in Trafalgar Square.

Hayón also talks about other projects he’s working on, including a pair of shoes for Camper (which he is wearing in the film) while Bombay Sapphire mixologist Merlin Griffiths creates a cocktail inspired by the installation called The Sapphire Tournament.

See yesterday’s movie about Tom Dixon’s Bombay Sapphire Dusk Bar.

    An unplayable chess set is pure evil

    You can play with the set – it’s not evil
