Steelcase Shepherds a New Era of Frank Lloyd Wright Designs
In collaboration with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, Steelcase launches the Galesburg and Rockford collections marking a new era of FLW-inspired design.
The late American architect Frank Lloyd Wright is unequivocally acknowledged by posterity as a pioneer of not only architecture but design as a lifestyle, pivotal in shifting the public?s accessibility to a new paradigm, vocabulary, and vision for modern living ? a mission upheld to this day by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation (FLWF). Aligning with this egalitarian ethos is the multi-hyphenate Steelcase, a global thought leader, designer, and manufacturer of innovative furnishings and solutions for the world of work. The two parties come together once again to release the Rockford and Galesburg Collections marking an expansion of their longtime collaboration. Together, they reintroduce iconic mid-century furniture while reinterpreting Usonian concepts for timeless pieces tempered by current tastes and needs. Rockford Ottoman and Rockford Lounge Chair
The Rockford Collection, inspired by the 1952 Laurent house in Rockford, Illinois, includes the reintroduction of a rail-back lounge chair and grouping of polygonal plywood tables and their movable companion seating. With accessibility at its core, each geometric piece may be accessed ? visually and physically ? from any angle to meet the needs of wheelchair users allowing for freedom and comfort. And the upholstered stools feature fabric pulls for ease of use. ...
