Cockpit Launches First Ecommerce Shop Featuring 35 Leading Makers

05.09.25

Launching this September, Cockpit presents The Cockpit Edit, a new ecommerce platform with a curated selection of work from leading artist-makers based across Cockpit’s studios in Bloomsbury and Deptford. Design-led work will feature for the first eight weeks, with 35 makers in the spotlight.

Collectors and craft lovers alike will have the opportunity to discover and purchase more than 80 unique pieces directly from the charity’s online shop, with insights into the individual makers and their practice.

Works will be available to purchase from 15 September 2025, aligning with London’s annual celebration of international design, London Design Festival. Cockpit Supporters get early access to the sale from 12 September.

‘We’re delighted to launch this new initiative and share some of the exceptional work that Cockpit’s makers create each month. It creates an opportunity for the wider public to access new work directly and for Cockpit to extend our support for our maker community, creating a new sales channel.’

Jonathan Burton, CEO of Cockpit
