London's Victoria and Albert Museum is currently running an interesting exhibition, Telling Tales. Revisiting classic nursery rhyme scenes, the exhibition uses many of the design worlds most avant garde pieces to recreate the settings of our childhood fantasies. Curating the exhibition was clearly made easier by the abundance of "furniture as art" that has been so popular with the design community recently.  The pieces featured above have been released over the past few years at the global design fairs, and now take pride of place amongst the new exhibition.

Definitely a must see if you are in London over the next few months. To learn more go here.
