Alexander Girard (1907 – 1993) was one of the most important textile artists of the 20th century. During his time working for Herman Miller, Girard designed over 300 textiles. Due to his meticulous planning, his fabric patterns radiate a calmness and balance despite the vivid colours used. After a short introduction to Girard ́s textiles in the exhibition »Alexander Girard. A Designer ́s Universe« participants design their own motifs for printing in this afternoon-long workshop. Using various textile printing methods, including thermal screen printing, participants create their own fabric prints for pillowcases, table cloths, cloth napkins and other home textiles.
