FOR THE PAST 25 YEARS HOXTON HAS BEEN THE CREATIVE CENTRE OF LONDON.

A heady mixture of artists, writers and rock stars mixing seamlessly with super models, fashion designers and entrepreneurs cross pollinating ideas and changing the way everyone else does things. This is where street artist Banksy went from doorways and alleys to the auction house, where it's just as likely to bump into Pete Doherty at a private view as it is to run into Damian Hirst at a local boozer. Where there's always a heady buzz in the air which feels as if anything can happen. And you know what? Knowing Hoxton, it probably will.
