REMOTE WORKING
- A 1960s white polypropylene chair on castors designed by Robin Day for Hille. R1,500
- The first Polypropylene chair designed by Robin Day was launched in 1963 after three years of development work. Polypropylene had been invented in 1954 but it had not been used in the furniture industry before. Robin Day and Hille developed seating using this new durable, cost-efficient material working in conjunction with the British petrochemical company Shell. Robin Days design concept included key elements such as hidden fixings using an integral fixing boss, a fully rolled edge to add strength and a range of bases which gave the chair the potential to appeal to a multitude of markets.
- The Polypropylene chairs were so successful that by the early 70s Hille had licensees in 30 countries.
