Josf Frank, Austrian/Swedish architect and uber designer, created over 200 fabric patterns between 1909 and 1950. He moved easily in many directions of design- furniture, lighting, textiles. His designs offered a contrast to the linear,
grid-like
restrictions of his contemporaries.
"Every
human needs a certain degree of sentimentality to feel
free," Frank
said... "Away with the universal styles, away with the
equalization
of industry and art....The home does
not have
to be planned out in detail, just put together by pieces its
inhabitants
love." Tuesday, March 16, 2010, I love how he knows how to use just enough pink.
