Furniture made from London's broken bike locks features in People and Places exhibition

Design students from the Chelsea College of Arts have staged an exhibition at Yorkton Workshops in Hackney that acts as "a microcosm of London" and explores the issues keeping its residents up at night.

The show, called People and Places, was curated by Dezeen Award-winning designer Liang-Jung Chen and includes projects that find new uses for hyper-local materials – from broken locks left behind by bike thieves to clay foraged from Hampstead Heath.
