Welcome to your Friday dose of TOO x TOO – Featuring Hendrick's experiential advertising, Stella McCartney’s winter collection, WGSN's Electric Night and a study by London Hospital’s charity CW+.

Hendrick’s Gin looks to seize the senses of London’s commuters

In an experiential first, Hendrick’s are seeking to engage the olfactory system of London’s commuters by tunnel wrapping Kings Cross station with rose and cucumber scented posters to herald the arrival of their Summer edition spirit. Sticking around until September, perhaps take some time to stop and smell the roses on your next journey.

As an industry, fashion is never far from the lens of scrutiny by environmental activists. So, any endorsement from an authority voice would favour any brand working to legitimise their sustainability pursuits.

A study by London Hospital’s charity, CW+, has found that the addition of art in NHS hospitals has contributed to improved patient wellbeing, reduced anxiety before procedures and the detection of lower levels of the stress hormone (cortisol) in patients. Increasingly UK hospitals are commissioning designers, such as Morag Myerscough and Quentin Blake, to transform hospital spaces.
