Funny, I used to live in this neighborhood @ 20 years ago and never knew about this museum or <a title=\"About Mitchell Park in Kalorama neighborhood\" href=\"https:\/\/gocitykids.parentsconnect.com\/attraction\/mitchell-park-1801-23rd-street-nw-washington-dc-20008-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mitchell Park<\/a>, since cleaned up for family activities.<\/p>\n<p>Lucienne Day was an artist, textile designer, innovator and an entrepreneur in Mid Century Britain. She met her furniture designing husband, Robin Day (who&#8217;s chair design became standard ones used in stadiums and preschool), while studying together at The Royal Academy for the Arts. Much of the background regarding this exhibit and about her extraordinary life can be found on the exhibit site as well as my previous post, which cites other sources. I primarily wanted to follow up and reflect on some of her pieces that showcased the technological advances in textile design.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, I thought this photo of her is just stunning. It welcomed you as you entered the exhibit. Sadly, I learned that she just passed away this year, so the timing of this exhibit is a fitting tribute.

This is largely, I think, where the skill of a good print designer lies.&#8221; <\/em>Pattern is beautifully integrated and the repeat is nearly invisible and the design is a true expression of Day&#8217;s talent<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/LucienneDay_SilverBirch_casartblog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4384\" title=\"LucienneDay_SilverBirch_casartblog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/LucienneDay_SilverBirch_casartblog.jpg\" alt=\"LucienneDay_SilverBirch_casartblog on Slipcovers for your walls\" width=\"265\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/LucienneDay_SilverBirch_casartblog.jpg 265w, https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/LucienneDay_SilverBirch_casartblog-138x300.jpg 138w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 265px) 100vw, 265px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This must be why I was mesmerized by her Silver Birches design, which I learned about after I created our <a title=\"Casart Birds &amp; Birch -- Designs &amp; Murals\" href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/murals.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Birds &amp; Birch wallcovering pattern<\/a>. Ours is meant to be a linear, figurative take on stripes.

The challenge for us was to establish a repeat (a necessary component of wallpaper design to be able to continue the pattern) while maintaining a hand-painted, fluid look as in the original artwork. This was particularly important with our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/shop\/casart-wallfinishes-removable-peel-and-stick-wallpaper\/colorwash-removable-wallpaper\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Colorwash wallpaper design<\/a> because it wouldn&#8217;t work with a noticeable, visible repeat. This would have made it look unnatural, manufactured and contrived &#8212; not hand-painted &#8212; or badly painted. You don&#8217;t want to see edges or end points in good decorative painting and I wanted it to look to as if I had painted it directly on the wall. I think we pulled it off, as you can see here in an interior <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/shop\/casart-collaborators-artists-designers-wallpaper\/mary-douglas-drysdale-signature-colors-for-casart-coverings\/drysdale-signature-colorwash-removable-wallpaper\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">design that Mary Douglas Drysdale conceived to use with our wallcovering<\/a>. We&#8217;d be interested to hear your feedback on this as well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Casart_DrysdaleColorwash_casartblog.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4386\" title=\"Casart_DrysdaleColorwash_casartblog\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Casart_DrysdaleColorwash_casartblog.jpg\" alt=\"Casart_DrysdaleColorwash_casartblog on Slipcovers for your walls\" width=\"375\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Casart_DrysdaleColorwash_casartblog.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/casartblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Casart_DrysdaleColorwash_casartblog-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My favorite Lucienne Day design is her Climbing Trees (1953) which was printed on taffeta that has since faded beautifully over time. It was a gorgeous framed display about eight feet tall with perfect lighting that made it just glimmer.
