He studied Romance languages at the University of Zurich and obtained his doctorate in 1929. In 1930, he set up as a furniture designer. With Anton Stankowski, Richard P. Lohse, Heiri Steiner, Hans Neuburg, Hans Fischli, Verena Loewensberg, Max Bill and others, he formed a cultural group in connection with the Zurich School of Concrete. His most significant project is the Landi chair, which was a winning entry for the Swiss national exhibition in 1939. Coray is known for the functionality and simplicity of his designs, and is considered a pioneer of industrial design. Since 2004, his Landi chair has featured on a series of Swiss postage stamps that has Swiss "design classic" as its theme. == External links == * * (Short biography with picture ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hans Coray」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
