Unknown by the public at large, Martin Grierson (1932-2023) was a pillar of the 1970s British Furniture designer maker movement. He was one of its more traditional pioneers (unlike John Makepece and Fred Baier). Martin was already a leading industrial furniture designer in the 1950's and made the transition to designing and making funiture on a small scale independlty in the mid 1970s. Martin stood out in handling large scale corporate and public commissions. Furniture maker Jeremy Broun exhibited alongside him in group exhibitions (usually headlined by John Makepeace) for over three decades. This unique documentary based on an unscripted impromptu chat beteen the two highly skilled makers gives insights a television programme would not be able to achieve.
