James Provost mid-century designs poster

Provost mid-century

Illustrating some of the best known and best loved pieces of modern furniture isn't a new idea but usually is a pretty attractive one. Step forward then James Provost with his take on mid-century design icons

It features all the usual suspects, from the Eames' lounger to Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona chair. The print's limited colour scheme and the minimal depiction of each object makes it look extra appealing. 

It's available as a giclee print in various sizes starting at $14.24 for a 'petite' print and going up to $76.49 for the 'massive' version.

Lagom’s Alexander Girard greeting cards

Girard card

We're huge fans of the mid-century designs work of Alexander Girard here, though sometimes it's a little tricky to find affordable version of his work for sale. We featured these notecards quite a while back but unfortunately they no longer seem to be available. It's exciting news then that Lagom have been selected by the Girard estate to publish a range of greeting cards for sale in the UK. 

There are twelve attractive cards available which include reproductions of some of his best known designs. Each card costs £1.79 and apparently there's some gift wrap to follow. Watch this space…

Regular readers of the site will be aware that we are massive fans of Charley Harper's mid-century designs. Those who are gifted with a needle may be interested to hear that some of his best loved prints are available as needlepoint designs.  

Treglowan design produce the hand painted canvases, it's then up to the embroiderer to select the threads to match and interpret the pattern. Pictured is Flamingo Row which costs $70, but the prices vary from $50 up to $350: definitely not one for beginners.
