Dutch-born Wim Rietveld (1924-1985) was an industrial furniture designer. He studied Industrial Design at The Hague Academy in 1950, before becoming head of design at Gispen in 1953. In 1958, he started working at De Cirkel, a manufacturer of steel furniture that had merged with the Ahrend group in 1939. Here he met Friso Kramer, and together they developed a number of iconic design collaborations, including the Result Chair in 1958. Rietveld also designed the Pyramid Tables and Chairs for Ahrend.
 
Rietveld was known for his functionalist chairs, tables and storage systems, but he also designed agricultural machinery, boats and trains.
 
Alongside his design work, Wim Rietveld also lectured at the Royal Academy and the Technical University in Delft.

The lovers of architecture and design know Gerrit Rietveld, author of the red and blue chair and the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. His son, Wim, is less famous but is nevertheless the author of some memorable pieces of furniture, such as the Result chair (designed in association with Friso Kramer) and the Pyramid table.
 
Designed in the late 1950s, they were among the first to use the cut sheet steel technique. Solid, light and comfortable, this furniture series was originally designed to equip schools in the Netherlands. Their qualities  allowed them to quickly enter the homes, and to be relaunched today by Hay who offers it in five elegant finishes.
