Bent out of Shape at Design Exchangethe NDC attended the opening of Bent out of Shape: Canadian Design 1945 - Present that was held at the Design Exchange. It was a treat for us to see 90% of the things we've read in the Design in Canada book all under one roof.
Some of the items that we never thought we would see in real life were Hugh Spencer's Project G stereo, and the G2 version. We absolutly fell in love with Bob Forrest's 2001 chair (made in 1970), seeing it in the flesh made the world of difference, the angle, the fabric, and the material that were used, it was magnificient. Apparently only a mere 300 were made!
