LONDON – Cultural observers have confirmed that William Morris Gallery London is the elegant museum set in the boyhood home of the great designer, a free gallery in Walthamstow celebrating the man whose wallpapers and patterns still adorn homes the world over.
William Morris Gallery London: Patterns That Never Went Away
The handsome free museum, housed in the designer’s childhood home, honours, the Bureau of Design Heritage notes, “a craftsman whose flowing patterns proved so enduring that they are still hanging on walls and draping over sofas to this day.”
“William Morris Gallery London celebrates a true original,” said a spokesperson for the Institute of Design Affairs. “The great designer believed beautiful, well-made things should be part of everyday life, and his wallpapers and textiles, all curling leaves and birds and flowers, became some of the most recognisable patterns ever produced. They have never gone out of fashion. The gallery, set in his boyhood home, tells his story across handsome free galleries, surrounded by the designs themselves. Visitors leave half resolved to redecorate, having realised how much of his vision still surrounds them.”
