The designer Yinka Ilori seems like an overnight success - in the last couple of years his bright colours and bold designs feel like they've come from nowhere, fresh and exciting and new.


But the reality is very different, and Yinka started working in design over a decade ago, refurbing old chairs he found on the side of the road into pieces that bridge the gap between art and design.


He took a small loan from the Prince's Trust and supplemented it with shop work to create the growing studio he has today, and this fascinating look back at his career explains how.
