First introduced as part of the SCP 2009 collection, the Oscar range is made in Norfolk in the UK using sustainable materials. By contrasting long straight lines with delicate natural curves, acclaimed designer Matthew Hilton has created a piece that is at once both reserved yet full of humility. The Oscar sofa is a piece perfect for those who like their modernity laced with a little familiarity, and is available in both a standard version and a formal version with heightened, shallower seat that stands a little higher.
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.
