Design Studies Summary The historical textile I have chosen to write about‚ “Keyboard” was designed by Henry Spence Moore ‚ an English designer‚ and sculptor. He is best known for his semi-abstract‚ monumental ‚bronze sculptures located around the world. “ Keyboard” is furnishing fabric made of printed wool.
