Robin Day | Interplan Chest P | 1954
Interplan Chest P by Robin Day for Hilleplan.
2 units available, priced per unit.
The Interplan collection was an extensive range of storage units designed around a standard module size. The cabinets worked singularly or in combination as a system. With fourteen modules available, the range offered a new level of flexibility for users.
Launched at the Milan Triennale in 1954, the range was well received and commercially successful, and its appeal has endured due to its timeless and restrained design.
It was produced with either rosewood or ash veneered fronts that sat flush with the solid mahogany case. Utilising brass handles, the modernist outline, flat-fronted cabinets proposed a contemporary aesthetic for storage.
Pair available with mahogany cases, ash drawer fronts, brass handles, and black-painted steel legs. Hille labels inside drawers.
Robin Day is Britain’s most renowned furniture designer of the 20th Century era. Having won the Museum of Modern Art’s prestigious Low-Cost Furniture Competition in 1948, he went on to design an exceptional and respected cross-section of furniture in a career spanning more than 60 years.
An acute understanding of materials and manufacturing processes, aligned with progressive design skills led to numerous landmarks in the history of furniture design. His polypropylene seating is acknowledged as the world’s best-selling chair.
Robin Day’s achievements are not restricted to furniture and his industrial designs, exhibitions, graphics and interiors are highly respected for individual flair and modernist sensibilities.
Alongside his wife, textile designer Lucienne Day, the couple are revered and acknowledged for introducing contemporary design to Britain.
