A true design legend, very sad indeed.

Tom Karen (1926-2022)
My father, Tom Karen, influential designer & gentle, creative man died on New Year’s Eve. His enquiring, curious, questing mind will be missed by many.

Sorry to hear that designer Tom Karen has died, at the grand age of 96. I loved meeting him in 2014 and writing about his long creative career in industrial design for @EandTmagazine. Here is the piece on my website. rebeccamileham.com/my-interv…

Tom Karen, designer behind 1970s' cult classics, dies aged 96 bbc.in/3Q9Xndw

Tom Karen was the creative genius behind a string of cult classics - from the Marble Run to Raleigh Chopper, 1960s smash hit Bush TR130 radio and the Reliant Scimitar GTE. He will be sorely missed.
