Robin Day Slat chair, 1952
Designed by Robin Day in 1952, the Slat Chair is a rare early example of his modernist approach to postwar British design, and a precursor to his later Chevron chair. Originally featured in Hille’s first seating catalogue, it broke away from the bulky styles of the time with its low-slung frame, dowel legs and clean, open structure - drawing influence from American, Scandinavian and Japanese design.
This example has been reupholstered in two-tone Kvadrat deadstock fabric, selected by Irenie Studio as part of the onthesquare project to reflect the original colours and textures.
A refined and increasingly hard-to-find piece.
Priced at £1500.
