ROBIN DAY Series E Side Chair
The "Series E" is a stacking chair made of injection-molded polypropylene, designed by the master of British modern design, Robin Day. Often called the "British Eames," Robin Day, a British designer who represented the mid-century period, designed this stylish yet low-cost British school chair in 1971. Designed ergonomically as a school chair, it combines durability and safety. This chair has a reliable quality that meets strict European standards for chairs for educational institutions, and despite achieving thorough cost reduction, it does not feel cheap. More than 50 years after its design, it continues to be loved around the world. The seat uses high-quality polypropylene, which combines appropriate impact resistance and robustness. The rectangular hole with rounded corners in the center, a feature of the design, facilitates portability and also reduces weight by decreasing the amount of polypropylene used. The PP (polypropylene) used for the shell was a cutting-edge material at the time. In 1963, HILLE and Robin Day developed the first polypropylene chair made of PP by injection molding, achieving mass production. Along with the Series E, this product was the reason Robin Day was called the "British Eames." Today, injection-molded chairs are common, and PP chairs are often seen in daily life. However, the Series E, which is light and durable, and has been available at an affordable price since its inception, can be said to be a product that embodies Robin Day's design philosophy of spreading popular modern design to the world.Source: https://metrocs.jp/
