BROOKLANDS
The world had to say goodbye to one of the great designers of the past century when Sir Terence Conran died a little more than two years ago. The restaurateur, writer, retailer and founder of London landmarks such as the Design Museum, the Bluebird Garage café, Quaglino’s restaurant and the Habitat and Conran Shop stores touched the lives of millions.
If you’ve ever travelled in a Land Rover Discovery, for example, you’ve benefited from the Conran touch – because it was Sir Terence who designed the original model’s practical, spacious and light-filled interior.
