Description:
Inside the interwar British design store that pioneered midcentury modern plywood furniture
"It was simple furniture ... and we were makers of it."
In 1931, the English designer Gerald Summers (1899-1967) and his partner, Marjorie Butcher (1909-96), opened their London shop Makers of Simple Furniture. A small company, they produced made-to-order furniture. Until the firm's closing in 1940, Makers of Simple Furniture produced hundreds of ingenious furniture designs in plywood. Conceived, in Summers' words, as "furniture for the concrete age," this singular body of work shaped the notion of the modern interior in Britain.
Makers of Simple Furniture tells for the first time the compelling story of the firm and its dedicated proprietors. Drawing on Butcher's vivid recollections and a wealth of unpublished material-including never-before-seen images, personal correspondence, workshop documents and illustrated specification sheets-the book reveals the magnitude of their achievements and restores a neglected chapter in the history of modern design. This publication is made possible in part by a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.

Looks good and is stable
Color: Dark Mocha, Size: 3 Panel
This is perfect for my needs. I have a large bathroom window that anyone can see the toilet when the window is open. The weather is so beautiful here for many months and I hated keeping that window closed. This screen is perfect. It covers the open part of the window so no one can see in but the air flows freely (the glass is frosted so it is not a problem when closed). The screen is very lightweight and came fully assembled (which is amazing anymore). It feels stable and I think it is a good value for the money.

Five Stars. Exactly what I needed for my space
Color: Black
I live in a small NYC apartment, so creating separation without making things feel cramped is always a challenge. This divider did the job perfectly.
It was easy to set up right out of the box. No complicated instructions, just unfold and place it where you need it. The size is great. It actually gives real coverage and privacy without looking bulky.
The fabric looks clean and professional, and the black color blends well with everything. I’ve used it to separate my workspace from my living area, and it instantly made my place feel more organized.
It’s also lightweight enough to move around, but still sturdy enough to stay in place.
If you need a simple, affordable way to create privacy or sections in a small space, this is a solid choice.
