1931 eröffneten der Designer Gerald Summers und seine Partnerin Marjorie Butcher in London ihr Geschäft Makers of Simple Furniture. Bis 1940 produzierte das Unternehmen »Möbel für das concrete age« (Gerald Summers), die die Vorstellung vom modernen Interieur in Großbritannien prägen sollten. Auf der Grundlage von Marjorie Butchers lebhaften Erinnerungen und einer Fülle von unveröffentlichtem Material – darunter Fotografien, persönliche Korrespondenz, Entwürfe und Werkstattunterlagen – zeichnet das Buch die bahnbrechenden Errungenschaften des Designbüros nach, zu dessen bekanntesten Produkten der Bent Plywood Armchair zählt.

Diese Publikation wird zum Teil durch die Unterstützung der Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts ermöglicht.

GERALD SUMMERS (1899–1967) ist einer der bedeutendsten Möbeldesigner des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts. Er wurde in Alexandria, Ägypten, geboren und arbeitete als Ingenieur, bevor er seine Karriere als Designer begann. Im Jahr 1931 eröffnete er zusammen mit seiner Partnerin das Unternehmen Makers of Simple Furniture in London.



MARJORIE BUTCHER (1909–1996) und er produzierten Hunderte von Möbeln für das moderne Zuhause. Im Jahr 1940 beendeten die Kriegsereignisse das Unternehmen, woraufhin sie ihre Energie auf Gerald Summers Ltd. lenkten, einen Lieferanten von technischen Teilen.MARTHA DEESE ist eine ausgewiesene Expertin für Gerald Summers. Sie erwarb einen Masterabschluss in Kunstgeschichte am Cooper-Hewitt Museum/Parsons School of Design, New York, und arbeitete drei Jahrzehnte lang am Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Ihr bahnbrechender Artikel im Journal of Design History 1992 ist nach wie vor die wichtigste Quelle zu Summers und seiner Firma.

Postpartum Opinion
Fit Type: Boyshort, Size: X-Large, Color: Assorted Colors
Bought the boy shorts size XL for postpartum and am still wearing them 8 months later! Holds all the postpartum goods in but are super stretchy too. Sooooo comfy! They do roll up when putting pants on but if you’re wearing them to bed or around the house, amazing!

To fit or not to fit?
Fit Type: Boyshort, Size: XX-Large, Color: Assorted Colors
NIce quality, comfortable fabric, dries quick, and retains color after multiple washings. However; the fit did not work 100% for me. The legs kind of rode up and the boy shorts had a tendency to ride down, especially with consistent bending up and down activity. Good product but not a perfect fit for my shape. The bikini style was ideal and purchased multiple times.

Very comfortable, right length
Size: Large, Color: Black,grey
This product arrived as described. I like the trunk length, not the boxer brief length. They are comfortable. Hold up well when worn and washed. I don't seem to sweat as much. These were ordered to replace ones ordered about 2-3 years ago due loss of weight, had to down size. The waist band doesn't roll as like other brands.
