Exploring the free-spirited and resourceful character of British design, this is a story of entrepreneurs who spearheaded their own companies – Lucian Ercolani at Ercol, Terence Conran at Habitat and Rodney Kinsman at OMK, among others – and the creative alliances between impassioned individuals and enlightened manufacturers, such as Frank Guille at Kandya. The book also looks at collaborations with international companies and foreign-born designers, such as El Ultimo Grito, who have adopted the UK as their base and injected further variety and spice into British furniture design.
