SOME SAD NEWS..
After four years of supplying uncommon goods in our beloved St.Dunstan’s neighbourhood we must share the sad news that we are winding down retail sales in our amazing little shop.

This decision has certainly not been easy for us, but running a bricks and mortar store that contends with rising costs and huge changes in shopping habits all play their part. Our staff, artists, makers and suppliers have brought so much love and creativity into our space and it has been a brilliant journey. A huge thank-you goes out to all of our customers and those that have supported us throughout this era - every sale, conversation and meeting of like-minded people has truly been a joy.

We’re not quite sure yet what will replace Platform but we’re going to continue to run events for as long as we can; we already have a great event lined up in May and are planning a number of follow ups for this summer.

There will, of course, be an incredible clearance sale with up to 50% of all stock starting immediately.
With love from all at Platform x
