About BOSS DESIGN

The story

Visit BOSS DESIGN

We craft modern British furniture with substance, shaping destination spaces where people can focus, connect and take a moment.

We unite intelligent engineering, crafted comfort and responsible materials to enhance everyday experiences.

Our core mission is simple and uncompromising: design integrity, calm, purposeful forms with meticulous detail. Quality materiality, honest woods, refined metals, and durable finishes. Responsible practice, circular thinking, low-impact materials, and long life. People-centred comfort, ergonomics you feel, creating a sensory experience. Choice as standard, options that suit brand, function, and place, and service & longevity, products built to perform and be renewed.

People have made Boss Design what it is. Their ideas, skill, commitment and creativity shape every product and give our company its spirit. Technology matters, but ultimately everything we make is guided by human hands, and by lasting relationships with customers built on trust, dialogue, and respect.

Boss Design was founded in 1983 by Brian Murray with a simple focus: quality. Partnering with the master craftspeople at WG Gallis in Dudley, Brian set out to create beautifully made furniture using honest materials and exacting standards. Working with designer Hilary Birkbeck, the team developed the Delphi chair, spring steel back, Pirelli platform, leather and chrome, which quickly established Boss in the world of contract seating. Early orders from Harrods, British Airways, major broadcasters, and conference centers set the tone for what followed as the business grew and WG Gallis became part of Boss.
