T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings (1905-1976) was a renowned furniture and decorative arts designer of the mid-20th century. Born Terence Harold Robsjohn-Gibbings on March 17, 1905, in London, England, he later became known for his significant contributions to the field of modern design.
Robsjohn-Gibbings initially pursued a career in architecture, studying at the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London. However, his passion for furniture and interior design soon led him to shift his focus. In the early 1930s, he relocated to New York City, where he began working as an interior designer and decorator.
During his career, Robsjohn-Gibbings developed a unique design aesthetic characterized by clean lines, simplicity, and a focus on natural materials. He drew inspiration from classical Greek and Egyptian designs, combining elements of antiquity with modern sensibilities. His furniture pieces often featured bold geometric shapes, solid wood construction, and minimal ornamentation.
In 1936, Robsjohn-Gibbings gained widespread recognition with the publication of his book "Goodbye, Mr. Chippendale: Being a Series of Occasional Observations on the Manners and Customs of the People Who Make Furniture." This influential work criticized the prevailing taste for ornate and heavily carved furniture, advocating for a more streamlined and contemporary approach.
Robsjohn-Gibbings' career flourished in the 1940s and 1950s, during which he collaborated with prestigious clients such as Doris Duke, Elizabeth Arden, and Helena Rubinstein. His designs were sought after by affluent individuals who appreciated his ability to create elegant and functional interiors.
In addition to his work as a furniture designer, Robsjohn-Gibbings also ventured into other creative endeavors. He designed textiles, ceramics, and even ventured into the realm of theater and film set design. His versatility and artistic vision allowed him to leave a lasting impact on various aspects of the decorative arts.
Throughout his career, Robsjohn-Gibbings received numerous accolades and honors for his contributions to the field of design. His work was exhibited in prestigious museums and galleries, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. He also served as the president of the American Institute of Decorators from 1940 to 1942.
