The aim of this blog is to provide a world of the new and fascinating by tapping in to the forgotten or relatively undiscovered.SuziBielskihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10965587804222852967noreply@blogger.comBlogger4125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886596195288718921.post-6786476641809873232012-01-04T05:01:00.000-08:002012-01-04T05:01:39.518-08:00Just some illustrations I prepared earlier<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jf-8Pq5oX14/TwRNBUZDw6I/AAAAAAAAAEM/Yjh3-Uw7Or4/s1600/m8373b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="319" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jf-8Pq5oX14/TwRNBUZDw6I/AAAAAAAAAEM/Yjh3-Uw7Or4/s320/m8373b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

<br />
Lucienne Day's work combined organic shapes with bright patterns inspired by contemporary abstract painters such as Kandisky and Miro. She believed that good design should be affordable and<br />
her breakthrough print was 'Calyx', a brightly-coloured textile that she created for the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_of_Britain">Festival of Britain</a> in 1951.<br />
<br />
Lucienne stood out not just because she was a highly successful working woman during a time in which many women didn't work, but also due to her creative partnership with her husband, furniture designer <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Day_%28designer%29" title="Robin Day (designer)">Robin Day</a>. For 50 years they worked, together but independently, in a shared studio, and their house grew to be considered the epitome of 1950s sophistication. <br />

I recently visited Alfie's Antiques in Marylebone and they wanted about £250 for a metre of Lucienne's fabric...timeless design doesn't come cheap...SuziBielskihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10965587804222852967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2886596195288718921.post-68145424130355586642011-04-19T13:40:00.000-07:002011-04-19T13:40:56.257-07:00Pesach Semeach!
