An absolute hero of mine! I have a number of Grange designed items - and they are all remarkably well designed, a pleasure to use, and are incredibly durable. One of the all time great industrial designers!

a great man and humble, I worked for Kenneth in the 70s 80s it was the best time of my life

This is the sort of person that people should see as a role model

Brownie Vecta is a product of the Grange spool of thought.
Brilliant mind and a charming bloke.

A most remarkable man who has an artistic eye in his designs. I am constantly irked by the design of everyday items and feel that many of them have not been tried out by the people who would use them. I thoroughly enjoyed the video thank you.

What a fantastic person, and what a fantastic documentary!

Fantastic designer. ✨
Why isn't he a household name?! We have all heard of Steve Jobs, or Sir James Dyson, but not Kenneth Grange??
