Highly versatile, the Case Furniture Kelston Ottoman can be used as a traditional ottoman or as an occasional seat. Designer Matthew Hilton often looks to long-established furniture forms for inspiration, claiming that “All of my pieces are loaded with meaning and memory", and that is certainly present here, with a piece which at once looks familiar but carries with it a contemporary edge. The Kelston Ottoman is the ideal companion to Case's range of Kelston sofas.
Born in 1957, British furniture designer Matthew Hilton studied at Portsmouth College of Art and then at Kingston Polytechnic. After graduating he worked for Capa as an industrial designer and model maker. He then went on to set up his own design studio/workshop in 1984. In 1986, SCP was the first designer furniture manufacturer to produce Hilton’s work.
Matthew Hilton has since gone on to work with many international furniture manufacturers including CASE, Montis, Authentics and De La Espada.
