Why shouldn’t traditional `white goods’ used everyday not get a designer update? Love the washing machine and would go into any well designed kitchen or utility room.

]]> Comment on The Design Museum breaks new ground by Niki, unifiedspace http://whatsgoingonatconran.wordpress.com/2012/09/18/the-design-museum-breaks-new-ground/#comment-799 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 08:59:17 +0000 http://whatsgoingonatconran.wordpress.com/?p=5558#comment-799 Oh to be there when the time capsule is opened!

Delighted to hear that the Government are listening as I truly believe people like Sir Terence Conran can put this country back on track. There seems to be a huge momentum just now of all things British and everyday I am hearing of potteries re opening and British textile mills bowling over designers around the world. It seems that outside the uk, designers know about the quality that we produce here, we just need to make sure our own population is aware of the home grown talent which is why Design Museums are so important.

I’m looking forward to Tent, Designer Block, Origins, 100% etc at the weekend for another inspiring blast of current design.

Each design has a number worked into the pattern and is inspired by Conran’s patterns from the 60s. You can even download the designs for all your digital needs. There is a nice little Q&A on the Conran blog too.” [...]
