Ross F. Littell(1924년 7월 14일 – 2000년 4월 17일)은 1950년대 좋은 디자인 운동의 일환으로 실용적이고 혁신적이며 미니멀한 스타일로 유명한 미국의 섬유 및 가구 디자이너였습니다. 1952년 William Katavolos와 Douglas Kelley와 함께 디자인한 그의 다리가 3개 달린 T-의자는 여러 영구 박물관 컬렉션의 일부입니다. 로스앤젤레스에서 태어나고 자란 Littell은 로스앤젤레스의 아트 센터 학교에 다녔고 1946년에 명예롭게 교육을 마쳤습니다. 1947년에 그는 이탈리아에서 공부할 수 있는 장학금을 받았습니다. 이 기간 동안 Littell은 건축과 디자인에 점점 더 관심을 갖게 되었습니다. 1949년 Littell은 William Katavolos 및 Douglas Kelley와 파트너십을 맺었습니다. 6년간의 파트너십 기간 동안 그들은 가죽, 유리, 크롬 및 대리석과 같은 재료를 사용하여 뉴욕의 Laverne Originals를 위해 직물 및 식기류와 함께 가구를 디자인했습니다. 나중에 Littell은 주로 Knoll International과 Herman Miller를 위해 여러 가구 회사에서도 자율적으로 일했습니다. 흥미로운 사실은 1965년에 디자인된 PLR1 라운지 의자가 실제로 Herman Miller를 위해 디자인되었다는 것입니다. 밀라노 출신의 이탈리아 제조업체인 ICF는 이탈리아 시장을 위해 허먼 밀러 디자인을 라이선스로 많이 생산했으며 PLR1도 이탈리아 시장을 위해 생산하기 시작했지만 이탈리아의 고급 디자인 가구 매장 체인인 De Padova 매장에서만 사용했습니다. 스칸디나비아 디자인에 중점을 둡니다. 따라서 PLR1은 매우 흥미로운 역사를 가지고 있습니다. 매끄러운 크롬 스틸과 베이지 패브릭 스트랩으로 렌더링된 이 의자는 낮고 각진 좌석과 수평으로 멀리 뻗어 있는 두 개의 가대 다리로 확장되는 곡선형 프레임이 있는 슬리퍼 의자를 특히 스타일리시하게 표현했습니다. 4개의 보호용 발은 의도적으로 블록 플라스틱 큐브입니다. T-의자는 아마도 그의 가장 잘 알려진 디자인 중 하나일 것입니다. PLR1은 Littell의 가장 멋진 디자인일 가능성이 높으며 지금까지 많은 사람들이 찾고 있습니다. 크롬 도금된 프레임은 최근에 다시 크롬 처리된 프레임 중 하나를 포함하여 여전히 매우 양호한 상태를 유지하고 있습니다. 의자 중 하나는 과거에 덮개를 다시 씌웠고 다른 하나는 그렇지 않았습니다. 따라서 동일한 원단으로 업홀스터리를 하여도 약간의 색상차이가 있습니다. 천에 아주 약간의 얼룩이 보이지만 평소와 다른 것은 없습니다. 전체 프레임은 완전히 안정적이며 의자의 순전한 무게는 의자가 얼마나 잘 만들어졌는지 확인했습니다. 의자는 가죽 끈으로 덮개를 씌울 수 있으며 색상을 선택할 수 있습니다.

Ross F. Littell (July 14, 1924 – April 17, 2000) was an American textile and furniture designer known for his practical, innovative, and minimalist style as part of the good design movement of the 1950s. His three-legged T-chair, designed in 1952 with William Katavolos and Douglas Kelley, is part of several permanent museum collections. Littell, born and raised in Los Angeles, attended the Art Center School in Los Angeles and finished his education with honour in 1946. In 1947, he was awarded a scholarship to study in Italy. It was during these period that Littell became increasingly interested in architecture and design. In 1949 Littell formed a partnership with William Katavolos and Douglas Kelley. During their six-year partnership, they designed furniture, along with textiles and dinnerware, for Laverne Originals in New York, using materials such as leather, glass, chrome, and marble.
In a later stage Littell did work autonomously as well for several furniture companies, mostly for Knoll International and Herman Miller. An interesting fact is that the PLR1 lounge chair, designed in 1965, was actually designed for Herman Miller. ICF, an Italian manufacturer from Milan, produced a lot of Herman Miller designs for the Italian market in license, and started producing the PLR1 as well for the Italian market but only for the De Padova shop, a luxury chain of design furniture shops in Italy with a strong emphasis on Scandinavian design. Hence, the PLR1 has therefore a very interesting history.
Rendered in slick chromed steel and beige fabric straps, the chair is a particularly stylish take on a slipper chair with a low, angled seat and curvy frame extending into two trestle legs that extend far out horizontally. The four protective feet are deliberately blocky plastic cubes. Although the T-chair is perhaps one of his most well-known designs, the PLR1 is likely the most stunning design from Littell and is up until this date very much sought after.
The chromed frames are still in very good condition with one of them having been re-chromed lately. One of the chairs has been reupholstered in the past while the other has not. Therefore, there is a slight difference in color, even though upholstery has been done in the same fabric. The fabric has some very slight stains visible but nothing out of the ordinary. The entire frame is fully stable and the sheer weight of the chairs confirmed how well they have been built.
The chairs can be upholstered in leather straps, with color of choosing.
