520 1 |a "Lewis Foreman Day's design career spanned the three major design movements of the time: the Aesthetic Movement, the Arts and Crafts Movement and Art Nouveau. Day's relationships with colleagues William Morris, Walter Crane, W. A. S. Benson, among others, situated him in the vortex of developments of design in Britain. Yet, today, he is one of the most neglected figures in late 19th-century design. In exploring Day's dual career as an industrial designer and a writer and critic, Lewis Foreman Day (1845-1910), Unity in Design and Industry - the very first full treatment of this major figure - restores his place among the influential figures of his time." "Day's mastery of pattern, colour, ornament and superb draughtsmanship resulted in furnishings of remarkable diversity and beauty. Unlike some of his Arts and Crafts colleagues, Day embraced modern technology; his unshakable belief that a marriage of design and industrial processes was essential to produce beautiful furnishings for the majority of people, reveal him to be startlingly modern in his attitudes in the changing world of industrial production." "Today, collectors prize Day's clocks, furniture, tiles, art pottery, and books; reproductions of his patterns for wallpapers and textiles are greatly enjoyed by enthusiasts. Day's textbooks on design continue to influence designers, and his magazine journalism provides insightful commentary on developments in late 19th- and early 20th-century design." "Based on a decade of original research by Joan Maria Hansen - a recognised authority on 19th- and early 20th-century design - this book is the definitive work on Lewis Foreman Day's life and work. It is an invaluable reference for collectors and dealers, decorative arts professionals, designers, business historians and enthusiasts of late 19th- and early 20th-century design."--BOOK JACKET.
