Lucienne Day

Can't believe I've just heard of the sad news of Lucienne Day's death at the age of 93. An amazing, inspired textile designer, wife of furniture designer Robin, and a real design hero of mine. Read Jonathan Glancey's article on her here at the Guardian, where he says, "Lucienne was an unfailingly generous person, and a designer who knew how to balance the popular and the refined, or how to make the refined popular."
