Tel: 020 3773 9320 or email info@medialicensingco.com On the cover: The Musée national de la Marine in Paris is featured in our Projects section this month FX’S DEAR FRIEND and advisor, Cherrill Scheer, has died suddenly, which has weakened our industry, and so to celebrate her life we carry a two-page editorial in this issue on her influence – from the Hille family furniture firm and delivering post-war repro furniture to manufacturing the world’s most contemporary furniture with the legendary names of Robin Day and Fred Scott. Continuing on more celebratory news, it is the National Gallery’s 200th year anniversary, with events planned in Trafalgar Square, and we report on its architectural improvements and expansion. But for all the architecture and interior design – however fabulous – its role is to present, frame and celebrate one of the world’s greatest collection of paintings, from the 13th century to 20th century. More recently, retail design has changed with evolving consumer demands, and while some big brands have disappeared, Zebra’s MD Mark Mason discusses the retail evolution of the past 25 years. We also have a fabulous and insightful lighting supplement on how light affects and transforms our behaviour, plus Ian Macrae looks at what will have the most impact on lighting over the next five years. Good to look forward. And back. Always! Theresa Dowling, editor
