A Nice Day for a PicnicIn 1970, Steven Frykholm was working as the in-house graphic designer for the furniture manufacturer Herman Miller, Inc., when a company vice-president stopped by his desk. Every summer, the VP said, Herman Miller hosted a company picnic. Perhaps Frykholm would make up a poster for the event?

Basic ChemistryYears ago, I was out sick the week that my fellow high school students studied the periodic table. I’ve always blamed missing that foundational moment of scientific education for my very poor mastery of some basic chemistry. But there are certain concepts that I have had the opportunity to learn through personal experience. Every day when I try to make salad dressing, I am confronted with one of them—oil and water just won’t mix.

RhythmRhythm (1972) is like a visual representation of the movement of sound—the pulsation of music or a heartbeat on an electrocardiogram. In fact, it is the designers’ graphic interpretation of a meandering stream, inspired by the Indiana woodland. This feeling of movement is a product of the design concept promoted by Elenhank Designers, Inc. Elenhank, screenprint, curtain, Indiana, textiles |

Flower PowerLove in Bloom is a beautifully designed wallpaper that speaks of the period during which it was made. The differing shades of taupe printed in transparent colors on the reflective Mylar foil ground create a great sense of depth. Produced in 1968, it speaks very strongly of the Flower Power movement, of peace in turbulent times, as well as the use of new materials. wallpaper, Mylar, screenprint, peace, floral, flowers |
