HM221 LEVEL ARCHIVES CHAIR
Designed by Timothée Mion
Originating from a brief set by Hitch Mylius for final year students at Central St Martins, hm221 Level, designed by Timothée Mion is a modular system that questions the perception of how one should sit.
Asked to consider the changing nature of modern working spaces, including collaborative working, social interaction and the use of technology in the working environment, Mion’s research looked at behaviour and the way people use different levels when sitting and working.

DESIGNER - TIMOTHÉE MION
Originally from the South of France, Mion came to London to study for a BA in Product Design at Central St Martins, graduating in 2014. Having gained experience at companies such as Hermès, Dalziel & Pow and Chauhan Studio, Mion states that his starting point for designing comes from strong insights that give the product a reason to exist; a meaningful story. While creating a bridge between graphic design and product design, he shows great attention to detail and a real care and understanding for materials, technology and manufacturing processes.Mions’ hm221 level is the outcome of a project set by Hitch Mylius for final year students at Central St Martins in 2014; this year, it was awarded the Design Guild Mark.
