Ornament Now is a celebration of pattern and decoration, and the important contribution it has made to our built heritage. Turning a critical eye on modern design, it highlights how in the twentieth century an architectural elite rejected ornament, erasing deep-rooted cultural, aesthetic and craft traditions in the process.
