J&S Reid exhibition
Margaret Howell press release:
Highlighting John and Sylvia Reid’s pioneering 1950s and 60s Modernist furniture designs, an exhibition opens this month at Margaret Howell’s flagship London store.
Rotaflex lighting, S-range furniture and archival catalogues are the focus of the exhibit, which showcases the elegant practicality of the Reids’ designs.
Widely known for their lighting designs, Howell herself comments that “one feels that the Reids could successfully design almost anything if they set their minds to it”.
