Robin Day's name has been associated with Hille from 1949. He began designing for the company
after winning a first prize in the New York Museum of Modern Art International competition for
low-cost furniture. He soon became Hille's director of design and was responsible for all the
visual manifestations of the company, until it changed hands in 1982. From this time his direction
and influence ended.
Although best known for furniture design, his long career has covered a wide spectrum, Including aircraft design, |
office and restaurant interiors designing for the television and radio industries, exhibition
work and graphics. He has won many awards both in the UK and abroad and was awarded the
OBE in 1983. He still has connections with Hille and looks forward to their growing success
in the contract furniture field.
