For further details see GF11_12 which shows the same model. Note alteration to bottom shelf. There is a duplicate print of this photo in GBX04. According to Leslie Dandy, he designed the table and chairs in the background of this photograph. The name ' Librenza' was devised by Doris Gundry (J Walter Thompson - advertising agency) being a combination of library and cadenza. Doris Gundry was also the inspiration behind the G-plan name and early G-Plan slogans. ref: HWFA Research Material, Sept 2007, Leslie Dandy notes ' A Designer's View. Unpublished comments. |
