G-PLAN G- PLAN
This furniture brand was launched in 1952 by Ebenezer Gomme, a company founded in 1898 in the town of High Wycombe in the UK. It was the first in the UK to embrace the Scandinavian furniture boom of the 1950s, and by the 1960s it had become so popular that it was said to be a symbol of London's urbanites. "G" stands for Gomme, and "PLAN" stands for planning, which means "planning your lifestyle." The product concept was a groundbreaking idea at the time, where people could enjoy creating a modern room in its entirety by purchasing individual items little by little. In 1987 the company was sold, and after many twists and turns, sofas are still manufactured by "G Plan Upholstery" in the west of England, and cabinets by "G Plan Cabinets" in Scotland.
