Parker Knoll meets Lucienne Day







Just before the summer I upholstered this Parker Knoll chair for Andrew and Helen. They had been to the Robin and Lucienne Day exhibition at Pallant House Gallery in Chichester (sadly no longer on) Here it was possible to get some of the original textile designs reproduced on fabric. This was done at the Glasgow School of Art.
The design used for this chair was called 'Magnetic' by Lucienne Day, in colour red.
