Day
8 resultsHe and his wife Lucienne designed a number of particularly brilliantly innovative pieces of furniture. In the 1950s, they overturned the traditional, bourgeois vision of furniture by focusing on functionality. This new approach gave rise to legendary pieces such as the Polyprop chair (1962-1963) and the Hillestack stacking chair (1950). Robin Day was born in England in 1915. He graduated from the Royal College of Art in London. In 1948, he and his wife founded their own design studio. In 1949, he took part in the Low-Cost Furniture competition organized by MoMa in New York and won first place. In 1950, he was appointed design director of Hille International. His work is set in a post-war context. As a result, Day was keen to design economical, practical furniture that could fit into small spaces. Technical research was at the heart of his preoccupations, as shown by the Polyprop chair designed using injection molding. Robin Day is one of the great figures of the design world, having turned its codes upside down.
