Time Out says

Commissioned to make a gift to London, 'the heart of contemporary design', 15 of the capital's finest from architecture, fashion and product design have made offerings that occasionally delight but often seem ill conceived or more focused on the giver than the receiver. The resulting exhibition 'Super Contemporary' gives itself an up-to-the-minute billing, but seems somewhat out of touch: only Tom Dixon's hybrid of an electric milk float engine and the chassis of a London cab shows any hardheaded engagement with environmental concerns for example.
