Heal's 2010 Reciprocation Bed Linen by Barbara Brown. Part of our Heal's Rediscovers Collection to celebrate our Bicentenary. 'Barbara Brown has become the golden girl of Heal's Fabrics designers' proclaimed the Heal's fabrics brochure in 1967. In the 1960s and early 1970s, the Royal College of Art graduate produced many designs for Heal's Fabrics. Describing her inspiration as 'rather theoretical and mathematical', Brown explains that her award winning geometric designs 'were based on machine and architecture'.Creating optical illusions, she used mathematical formulae to suggest motion. Other tricks included employing strongly contrasting areas of light and shade to give a three dimensional effect. Reworked for Heal's Rediscovers, Barbara Brown's 1962 design Reciprocation exemplified the changing mood of the decade and has been brought up to date with a contemporary colour palate. Bed linen made from 100% cotton with a thread count of 200. To find out more about Heal's ReDiscovers Click here"
