Rodney Kinsman

Rodney Kinsman, born in London in 1943, is a celebrated British furniture designer known for his innovative use of industrial materials and modernist aesthetics. He studied at the Central School of Art and Design, graduating in 1965, and soon after co-founded OMK Design in 1966 alongside Jurek Olejnik and Bryan Morrison. OMK focused on creating functional, modern furniture suitable for mass production, marking Kinsman as a key figure in post-war British design.

Kinsman gained early recognition through his collaborations with Habitat, the influential retail chain founded by Terence Conran. His “F Range” of the 1960s featured bold foam-and-vinyl forms suited to the youthful, modern market. He later created the iconic “Omstak” chair in 1971—made from perforated sheet steel—an enduring design that blended style with practicality and became a hallmark of his industrial design approach.

Throughout the 1980s and beyond, Kinsman continued to produce innovative furniture, including the wall-leaning “Graffiti” shelving system and the “Transit” airport seating, used in terminals worldwide. His contributions earned him significant accolades, including Royal Designer for Industry and Honorary Fellow of the Royal College of Art. Kinsman’s legacy lies in his ability to fuse minimalism with utility, shaping public and domestic spaces alike with his clean, modern designs.

Bieffeplast

Bieffeplast was an Italian design company based in Padua, Italy, originally founded as Bieffe in 1953 by Bruno Ferrarese. The company relocated its headquarters to Caselle di Selvazzano Dentro in 1958 and introduced the Bieffeplast brand in 1972. It became known for producing iconic modernist furniture and accessories through collaborations with designers like Joe Colombo, Ettore Sottsass, and Rodney Kinsman. Bieffeplast ceased operations in 1999, and in 2001, Emme Italia moved into its former premises, continuing a legacy of technical furniture manufacturing.
