The Gary Platt Hall of Fame recognises designers and customers worldwide for their excellence in designing chairs with unique and eye-catching combinations.

Inductees receive a plaque and will be showcased on the Hall of Fame at Gary Platt’s headquarters in Reno, Nevada.

“Each and every chair we create is custom-designed for the customer, to fit their unique and personal brand, so the chair functions as a further delivery of the customer’s brand promise to their guests,” said Gary Platt CEO Joe Esposito. “We are excited to honour this first class of inductees and to celebrate our innovative, collaborative design process.”
