Overview
Schooled in the Arts and Crafts tradition of the Cotswolds, Gordon Russell was a furniture designer and maker, calligrapher, entrepreneur, educator, and a champion of accessible, well crafted design. He believed that good design has a lasting impact on people’s lives. The Museum celebrates his life and work during his 60 years in Broadway with a collection of furniture that embraces styles from the Arts and Crafts to 1930s streamlined Modernism, and from Utility Furniture to 1980s luxury postmodernism.

About the area
Worcestershire is a county of rolling hills, save for the flat Vale of Evesham in the east and the prominent spine of the Malverns in the west. Nearly all of the land is worked in some way; arable farming predominates – oilseed rape, cereals and potatoes – but there are concentrated areas of specific land uses, such as market gardening and plum growing.
