Walter Hoyle (1922-2000)<br />
Bardfield<br />
1958<br />
PO3.3<br />
The title of this design is mostly likely a reference<br />
to Great Bardfield in Essex, home to a community<br />
of artists, designers and illustrators including<br />
Edward Bawden from the mid-twentieth century.<br />
Bawden taught many of the <strong>Palladio</strong> designers,<br />
including Hoyle, at the Royal College of Art.<br />
Hoyle chose to install Bardfield in his own home.<br />
In the photograph (right) Hoyle, who was also a<br />
painter and printmaker, can be seen working in his<br />
studio next to his wife Denise, with the Bardfield<br />
wallpaper in the background.<br />
Hoyle taught printmaking at the Cambridge School<br />
of Art from 1964 until his retirement in 1985.<br />
