Names: Black by Alexander Girard

The legendary designs of Alexander Girard demonstrated that textile design can be inspiring as well as functional. The designs of Alexander Girard are quintessential examples of the Mid-Century style of textile design.

The Names: Black fabric is one of the many classic designs Girard executed during his tenure (1952-1973) as founding director of the Herman Miller Textile Division. The engaging design of Names: Black consists of black lines in the form of cursive handwriting over an off white background. The "writing" is illegible.

This upholstery weight pattern is versatile and lends itself particularly to modern or retro-themed decor. Draperies, table covers, slipcovers, pillows and lampshades are some of the uses for Names: Black.
