Love is in the air: Metal Wall Relief International Love Heart wall decoration by Vitra
Love, Liebe, Amore - The work of Alexander Girard enriched 20th century design with a playful component that had been lacking in modernism until then. He was one of the world's most important collectors of folk art. The objects he collected on his extensive travels often served as inspiration for his own works.
During his creative period, the designer dealt with all kinds of surfaces and arranged ceilings, floors and walls. It is precisely these that are particularly adorned by decorative elements such as the metal wall reliefs. They were first developed by Girard for the Compound Restaurant and his house in Santa Fe.
Together with his family, Vitra reissued selected motifs, including the International Love Heart.
Alexander Girard
Alexander Girard is known as a formative figure in post-war American design. The American was born in 1907. Girard originally studied architecture, but in the course of his career he worked as a furniture, graphic, exhibition and interior designer. Textile design was a focal point of his work. Abstract, geometric forms and a variety of colour constellations are examples of his work.
Material and format
