F585 Chair by Geoffrey Harcourt

Geoffrey Harcourt (1935) trained at the Royal College of Art in London. In 1962, he designed his first series of small desk chairs for Artifort. This British designer provided the company with access to the international contract interior market, in which Artifort was not yet active at the beginning of the 1960's. Originally, Harcourt primarily designed seating for reception areas for such places as offices, hotels and airports. His second design for Artifort, the 042 series of 1963, was immediately an international success. In the 1980's, Harcourt designed mostly desk chairs and chairs for meetings. His philosophy is that the chair should focus on the person and not vice versa. "First the person and then the shape." Harcourt has won many prizes and in 1978 he received the title "Royal Designer for Industry."

The comfortable shell seats of the F585 Chair, designed by Geoffrey Harcourt, introduced a new businesslike character that penetrated to the homes of people with a taste for style via offices and public areas. These comfortable shells on a metal base are pleasantly futuristic but, at the same time, nostalgic. Available in several upholstery options with an option of a black or white base, this chair is sure to make a dramatic impact in your home. With style and comfort in one, once you sit down in this chair, it's possible you won't want to get back up.
