George Nelson: Architect, Writer, Designer, Teacher Exhibition

Co-organised by HKDI and IVE (LWL), and Vitra Design Museum, Germany, "George Nelson: Architect, Writer, Designer, Teacher" exhibition will showcase the fine selection of George Nelson (1908 - 1986), one of the most important American designers of the 20th century.

The exhibition held at HKDI Gallery from March to June 2014 will offer a detailed overview of Nelson's designs and insights, from iconic spindly-legged furniture and colourful ball-clocks to his writings and company brochures. His most signature design pieces such as the Marshmallow Sofa, the Bubble Lamps and the Wall Clocks will also be showcased during the exhibition period.
