product description


The Onion motif, with which Verner Panton supplemented his legendary Decor I collection for Mira-X in the mid-1970s, is undoubtedly one of his most impressive textile designs. It differs from the collection's original patterns in several respects. While the previous Decor I fabrics—Circle, Square, Curve, Stripe, Chequerboard, and Wave—were all based on clear, geometric shapes, the Onion motif, despite all its regularity, is characterized by a seemingly organic origin. Another difference was that Onion was only available in a single, generously sized scale rather than the usual three. A wise decision that effectively underscores the enormously strong dynamic and graphically spatial effect of this design. Finally, Panton also changed or supplemented the color scheme of Decor I specifically for the Onion. In addition to a multi-colored version that matched the color spectrum of the original collection, the design was also available in beige, green, and golden brown—possibly a concession to the changing color perception and sensation of the 1970s.
