    Our story

    At a time when the most exciting furniture designs in the UK were imports from Italy and Scandinavia, and frustrated by the lack of modern design in British-made furniture, designers Tristram and Hazel Mylius founded Hitch Mylius with the specific aim to design simple, well-crafted upholstered furniture for both contract and domestic markets.

    Starting with a work bench and sewing machine in modest north London premises, their first design was the classic hm11 followed in by hm31. These have evolved over the years to become today&#;s hm18 and hm34, so the essential concept of these two very simple, well-proportioned (and much imitated) generic designs has been in continuous production for over forty years.

    Liberty of London was a key customer during the early years, where hm11 became an instant hit. This first design was exhibited widely, displayed at the Design Centre in London and awarded the Design Council’s kitemark of approval for design ex

    American Hardwood varor för utland Council (AHEC)

    For over 30 years the American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC) has been at the forefront of wood promotion in Europe, successfully building a distinctive and creative brand for U.S. hardwoods. AHEC’s support for creative design projects such as Connected, Legacy and MultiPly for the London Design Festival demonstrate the performance potential of these sustainable materials and provide valuable inspiration.

    AHEC has pioneered the modelling of environmental Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for hardwoods, an approach that has since been adopted by other industries. LCA measures a number of impacts: primary energy demand (from renewable and non-renewable resources); global warming potential; acidification potential; eutrophication potential; and photochemical ozone creation potential.
