A life-and-times memoir and pictorial archive for designer John Wright.
The book is a story of the changes of taste from the end of the Second World War to the present day, as well as that of a gay man through a time of social change.
The work illustrated is a selection of John’s interior and furniture designs for commercial, residential and cultural buildings together with other drawings of free wheeling inspiration.
'I've had nothing but highly appreciative comments on the design of Seven Decades. It was not only the layout, the choice of typefaces, materials and colours but your impeccable choice of images and their placing within the text. I have to thank you especially for not only did it follow the story of the decades perfectly, but also the changes of taste.
The final thank you is one for being such a lovely team to work with, you made this one not only a triumph but one that was a hugely enjoyable and memorable experience.'
John Wright
