2. Problem: How can we bring a new generation of shoppers into
the Portobello Market?
• aging demographic of shoppers and shopkeepers
• Changing from a culturally relevant local space to an item on a tourists checklist.
How does D6 create a space that is relevant to younger generations and valued by
the community as a social space?
3. A third space that created a lasting engagement with

Solution:
4. In the space of three hours we had over 550 passersby take

Market Validation:

social area
6. Our small firm is more easily able to integrate
with the community, staying in touch with the
local market offices and having a subtle yet
visible presence in the market space.
Competitive Advantage:
