About Russel Wright –
Russel Wright (1904-1976) and Mary Wright (Died 1952) were American Industrial Designers with careers spanning decades, designing in a variety of categories and materials, all with a common thread – a quest for simplicity, affordability, and access for all people. The Wright’s had a goal of easier living, through the use of design to achieve this goal. Well designed and useful items for the home could create more time for leisure activities. The Wright’s wrote, a “Guide to Easier Living”, outlining their philosophy on organization and the home in 1950. Russel Wright is best known for his American Modern Dinnerware collection but designed home goods in multitude of categories.
