Abstract

The focus of this article is the German-speaking refugees who made a contribution to the British textile trade as designers. Some of them had trained at major art schools such as the Bauhaus, although such training was not a guarantee of success: timing was important too. Some individual British companies were quick to use the talents and skills of refugee designers, in at least one case having former knowledge of German and Austrian design traditions. The Ambassador magazine was not only created by refugees but employed others to produce the attractive ultra-modern journal which was so important to the post-war export drive. In fact, the refugees seem to have been particularly active in the exporting of British textiles, several of them winning national awards for their achievements. Hans and Elsbeth Juda, respectively the editor and photographer of The Ambassador were not alone among the refugees in influencing British life through education, through their promotion of the visual and performing arts and most importantly, through creating employment.
