LETTER : Seat of trouble

Sir: My thanks to The Independent magazine (9 March). Now at last I know the designer to curse when, with breaking back, I am enduring yet another event seated upon one of Robin Day's ghastly polypropylene chairs. They are the antithesis of all that a well-designed chair should be; their only merit their stackability. Mr Day has inflicted misery upon the millions who have to use his chairs. I note that he is pictured seated upon a very different piece of furniture.
