Rob and Nick Carter
Rob and Nick Carter: "The inspiration for our deckchair design has come from spending many lazy afternoons in Hyde Park with our children. The Royal Parks are the lifeblood of London. The image is a photogram, a unique bachrome made without the use of a camera or lens. Shining light through the butterfly directly onto the light sensitive paper below. The circles not only reflect the rings of a tree but also loosely reflect the seasonal changes of the colours in the park."
