Circle Furniture, a leading area retailer of fine furnishings, is pleased to announce the arrival of the Thayer Coggin Road Show, a unique opportunity to see, touch and feel 30 Milo Baughman pieces built by Thayer Coggin and to discover more about their influence on American mid-century modern residential furniture design.
On Wednesday, September 28, from 4-7pm, Circle Furniture’s Middleton store will host a kickoff event featuring Thayer Coggin’s resident expert Phil Miller, who will present a fascinating look at the two men and their collaboration. Food and beverages will be served and one special guest will win a drawing for a Thayer Coggin Stem Table. Space will be limited and the public is encouraged to RSVP for this event at www.circlefurniture.com.
Milo Baughman was one of the leading designers of the second half of the 20th century. Baughman’s uniquely American designs have shown extraordinary longevity, and his highly regarded work continues to be collected, reinvented and revived by designers around the world.
Since 1953, Thayer Coggin has been committed to timeless modern design and exacting manufacturing, with each piece bench-made by a single craftsperson, a technique that is increasingly rare in the home furnishings industry.
From 1953 until 2003, Thayer Coggin and Milo Baughman collaborated on designs, engineering and manufacturing techniques that came to define the mid-century modern era of American residential furniture. The spirit of their long-standing friendship remains alive well after both men’s passing.
