Margaret Howell goes back to basics
for a retail takeover at Tate Modern
The British designer Margaret Howell is
the maker of beautiful but discreet clothes,
with a strong sense of purpose and sensible
proportions. This April, Howell will bring
that understated aesthetic to London’s
Tate Modern, as she becomes the latest guest
curator of the Tate Edit shop, a bright and
tidy retail space tucked to the right of the
museum’s riverside entrance, and designed
by Jasper Morrison in collaboration with
architects Herzog & de Meuron. »
