Description
Terence Conran was a visionary and a self-interested entrepreneur. His influence can be seen in many aspects of modern Britain, from architecture to food. This biography, written by two of his closest collaborators, offers an intimate and revealing look at Conran's life and work. Conran's story is one of contradictions - he was both a democratising idealist and a selfish hedonist. His design empire, which included Habitat and the Design Museum, was built on a mix of innovative ideas and personal successes. The book takes readers through Conran's journey, from his early days to the creation of his iconic brand. This biography provides a candid and insightful look at Conran's life and legacy. It celebrates his genius and enduring impact on British culture, ensuring his rightful place as a national treasure.
