Scope and content

2 copies, one with envelope. Explains the new scheme at Windsor: "Isokon No. 3". Isokon's approach to the marketing of "modern living" is outlined. An appreciation of the English countryside and English buildings is hoped to be found in the shareholders. The combination of Gropius and Fry is viewed as being important. Further questions could be put to Gropius at Dartington.
