Each season has its own innate and distinctive characteristics, and I think I look forward to the first signs of spring most of Tall. Tender shoots pushing their way through the soil, fattening leaf buds, which promise a new year of greenery, and the twitter of the first birds to return to our shores, all set a mood of optimism and possibility. Like much of the natural world, we, too, come out of hibernation, reconnecting with neighbours we have scarcely seen across the winter, planning celebratory gatherings for Mothering Sunday and Easter, and reconsidering our homes with renewed vigour and sense of purpose. This edition is positively brimming with decorative inspiration and bursting with colour – from the decor of all our house stories to the special focus on blue and white (page 70) – that timeless combination, that we never seem to tire of. Our special flooring focus (page 103) offers inspiration for the often overlooked ‘fifth wall’ of a room. And a piece on hallway design (page 88) aims to help make the very best first impression. And if, like me, you have been hit by spring fever early, you might feel further galvanised into action by the stories on decluttering. My larder has never looked so tidy – although my cheeks are still burning at the discovery of some scandalously ‘vintage’ use-by-dates. BehindThis month I have beenthe busy... scenes With warmest regards, RACHEL SMITH Visiting design studios for private previews of soon-to- be launched spring fabric and wallpaper collections – PORTRAIT see the round-up of favourites in our next edition. Feeling sadness on hearing that the floods in Northern England damaged a precious fabric archive owned by a printing mill, as well as challenging its print schedules. Suspending personal scepticism about the vogue for ‘clean’ eating; some of the latest recipes books are definitely faddish, even nutritionally questionable, but Kerryn Harper-Cuss, Editor Hemsley + Hemsley’s book has delicious offerings, and I find myself a convert to celeriac-and-cauliflower mash.

  • Lexikon Der Textildesigner 1950-2000
    Prof. Dr. Jutta Beder Lexikon der Textildesigner 1950–2000 Universität Paderborn, redaktionell überarbeitete und korrigierte Fassung 2019 Vorwort In diesem Lexikon sind Textildesigner – in der Mehrzahl Textildesignerinnen – der zweiten Hälf- te des 20. Jahrhunderts aufgeführt, von denen Entwürfe zu Textilmusterungen in schriftlichen und bildlichen Zeugnissen nachweisbar sind. Das Lexikon entstand im Zusammenhang mit einem Projekt zur Erforschung des Textildesigns der Nachkriegszeit an der Universität Paderborn / Fach Textil und ist als Grundlagenforschung zu verstehen. Quellen sind Literatur- und Zeitschriftenbeiträge, die sich auf den Zeitraum zwi- schen 1950 und 2000 beziehen, ohne aber den Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit zu erheben. 2003 wurde das Lexikon als Datenbank im Internet veröffentlicht, 2019, von der Universitätsbib- liothek Paderborn redaktionell überarbeitet und korrigiert, als pdf-Dokument über die ‚Digitalen Sammlungen der Universitätsbibliothek Paderborn‘ publiziert. Textildesigner und Textildesignerinnen werden im Zusammenhang mit Stoffmusterungen selten namentlich erwähnt, da bei der Bezeichnung von textilen Stoffen zumeist die Firmennamen im Vordergrund stehen. Dies können die den Stoff herstellenden Firmen sein und / oder Verlage, über die die Stoffe vertrieben werden. Gleichwohl haben gerade in dem Zeitraum zwischen 1950 und 2000 bedeutende Textildesigner und Künstler Dessins für Stoffe entworfen, die in ihren Anwendungsbereichen von Innenraum- und Kleiddesign wichtige Beiträge zum Design liefern und die Grenzbereiche
