Lucienne and her husband, Robin, were the British answer to the Eameses. She was a textile designer, he was a furniture designer. In 2003, Lucienne Day told the Scottsman newspaper that she was “very interested in modern painting although I didn’t want to be a painter. I put my inspiration from painting into my textiles, partly, because I suppose I was very practical. I still am. I wanted the work I was doing to be seen by people and be used by people. They had been starved of interesting things for their homes in the war years, either textiles or furniture.” Happy Sunday! <3 Erin
