About SCP

SCP was founded in 1985 as a manufacturer and retailer of modern furniture. Inspired by the designs of the Modern Movement, SCP decided to start producing new designs in the same spirit. Still SCP remains true to its founding idea, to make design products that are functional, beautiful and made to last.

The company has collaborated with numerous esteemed designers, including Matthew Hilton, Jasper Morrison, and Philippe Malouin, producing pieces that blend functionality with aesthetic appeal.

Balzac chair

In 1991, a few years after launching their early collections, which were predominantly pieces made from metal or wood, SCP manufactured their first ever upholstery design, the Balzac armchair by Matthew Hilton. Working with a traditional upholstery maker in Norfolk, the design took over two years to develop, but Hilton’s talent for modernising traditional typologies ensured that the Balzac armchair and accompanying ottoman were a commercial success.
