Don Albinson was an American industrial designer best known today for his pioneering work in post-war furniture design and his long-standing collaboration with Charles and Ray Eames. Albinson’s work played a pivotal role in the design and development of numerous iconic Eames furniture pieces; consequently, he is often referred to as "Eames' right-hand man." Albinson began his career by studying at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, after which he worked in the Eames design studio. His expertise in construction and manufacturing was essential to the development of iconic designs such as the DCM (Dining Chair Metal), the "Aluminum Group" seating series, and the famous Eames Lounge Chair. In 1964, Albinson left the Eames Office to become Design Director at Knoll International. Shortly after joining the company in 1965, he designed the Knoll 1601 Stack Chair offered here. The design exemplifies the functional, minimalist aesthetic of post-war modernism and represents the shift toward industrially produced seating for both public and private spaces. Albinson worked at Knoll until 1971 and subsequently taught industrial design at the University of California, Los Angeles, until his retirement.
Don Albinson passed away in Minneapolis in 2008.
