Details
Aesthetic functionalism
While textile design was the primary focus of Alexander Girard, he was also admired for his work in furniture design, graphics, exhibitions, and interior architecture. Girard brought a sensuous playfulness to 20th-century design that had been absent from the austere aesthetic of classic modernism. He devoted the same level of attention to every interior: Ceilings, walls and floors were designed with great care and coordinated with functional pieces in each room. Girard created his Metal Wall Relief (1966) to decorate The Compound Restaurant and his own home, both in Santa Fe. In cooperation with the Girard family, Vitra has revived several of the original motifs, crafted from robust sheet metal. Each mounts off the wall to cast a subtle shadow. Made in Poland.

Alexander Girard
During his career, Alexander Girard energized the furniture designs of Herman Miller with a new, vibrant color palette and an oeuvre of folk-inspired textiles. He was the first modern designer to define textiles as being more than just functional and to further emphasize form through the application of color and pattern.
