* [http://www.cowlingandwilcox.com/ourshops.aspx Cowling & Wilcox] branches nearest/easiest to get to from the Space would be Shoreditch High Street & Soho. A mix of art supplies and craft supplies. Middle of the road for quality/prices. | * [http://www.cowlingandwilcox.com/ourshops.aspx Cowling & Wilcox] branches nearest/easiest to get to from the Space would be Shoreditch High Street & Soho.

* [http://www.falkiners.com/ Shepherds Falkiners] in Victoria. The best selection of retail paper in London, with helpful knowledgeable staff. If you need large quantities, then there are paper selectors from Antalis and GF Smith on the arts & crafts shelves, but for 1-10 sheets or for art tissue/handmade paper, Falkiners is the best place there is. | * [http://www.falkiners.com/ Shepherds Falkiners] in Victoria.

* [https://www.bauhaus-shop.de/ Bauhaus] The most amazing art materials shop I've ever been in. Reminds me of Foyle's bookshop in Charing Cross Road, pre-modernisation, though better organised: floor after floor of unexpected treasures. Unfortunately a bit of a trek, as it's in Berlin, but do visit if you're in the area. Or just want to be entertained for a week or so. | * [https://www.bauhaus-shop.de/ Bauhaus] The most amazing art materials shop I've ever been in.
