Fred Baier

Fred Baier is an avant garde British furniture designer maker working since the 1970s when he graduated from the Royal College of Art and taught at what is now Faculty of Arts (University of Brighton).

Since the Seventies he has used convergent technologies including computers, mathematics, and theories of proportion in his furniture designs.
