Coinciding with a year which will see the Olympic Games and the Queen`s Diamond Jubilee coming to London, the V&A museum will be hosting a major exhibition celebrating the UK`s profound influence on design in the post-war world.

Starting on March 31 and going on until August 12, the ‘British Design 1948-2012: Innovation in the Modern Age` exhibit will present parts of the Victoria and Albert Museum`s vast collection of historic items, which will highlight some of the brilliant creations of British born and trained designers. The objects on display are set to include examples from the museum`s fashion, fine art, graphics, furniture, ceramics, photography, architecture and industrial sections, giving visitors a broad yet detailed overview of the UK`s design history.

So, if you are looking to join in with the many celebrations of Britain taking place in 2012, why not look up London hotels today and explore the work of some of the country`s best ever design talent?
