The Case 675 Chair, designed by Robin Day in 1952, is an enduring icon of British modernist furniture.
Recognised for its distinctive curved plywood backrest and elegantly balanced proportions, this celebrated design combines sculptural simplicity with everyday comfort.
Developed in collaboration with the Robin and Lucienne Day Foundation, the Case 675 Chair faithfully recreates the proportions and character of Robin Day’s original design. Its innovative construction brings together a curved veneered plywood back, a streamlined tubular steel frame and a shaped seat, creating a distinctive silhouette that remains as relevant in contemporary interiors as it was in the mid-twentieth century.
Available with an oak or walnut veneered back and a choice of chrome or black powder-coated steel frame, the chair offers flexibility across a variety of interior schemes. The upholstered seat pad, finished in black piped leather, adds a refined material contrast while providing a comfortable place to sit. With its generous proportions and integrated armrests, the Case 675 is particularly suited to dining rooms, meeting spaces and contemporary work environments. Its open frame and carefully considered curves give it a light visual presence, allowing it to complement both classic wooden dining tables and more minimalist modern furniture.
The design's lasting significance was recognised in 2015 when it received the prestigious Design Guild Mark Award. More than a functional seating solution, the Case 675 Chair represents an important chapter in British design history, bringing authentic mid-century character into modern homes.
