The West Street Chair by Case Furniture embodies the essence of simplicity and sophistication. Designed as a personal venture by designer Robin Day, this chair originated from the idea of a cube-shaped armchair, handcrafted in his Chelsea workshop.
Named after the cherished residence of Robin and Lucienne Day, 21 West Street, this modern chair has found its place as a versatile desk companion or occasional seat in the Case collection. The legacy of the West Street Chair stretches back to the early 1980s when Robin embarked on the concept of a cube-based armchair. Its prototype took shape in his basement workshop, while the Days resided in their iconic riverside home on Cheyne Walk. Paula Day, daughter of Robin Day, fondly recollects how the chair became a fixture in their living room, serving as a 'telephone' chair before eventually finding a new home in Chichester at 21 West Street.
Today, the chair remains a cherished heirloom in Paula's own residence, a testament to its timeless appeal. Featuring a solid wood frame and luxurious leather upholstered pads, the West Street Chair epitomizes comfort and style. The angled back pad provides an additional layer of support, ensuring a delightful seating experience. Whether adorning a dining table or gracing a hallway, this iconic piece of British design effortlessly blends into any space.
With its clean lines and impeccable craftsmanship, the West Street Chair stands as a refined and enduring symbol of Robin Day's artistic vision and legacy, adding a touch of timeless allure to any interior.
