Alexander Girard, renowned mid-20th century architect and designer, used color and pattern joyfully and unselfconsciously in an era of muted minimalism. As the head of Herman Miller’s textile division from 1952 until 1973, he designed over 300 textiles – many which feature surprising color combinations, folk art-inspired graphics, and geometric abstractions. This expert set highlights a few of our artifacts from Girard’s tenure at Herman Miller.
