Terence Harold Robsjohn-Gibbings is a British-born architect, decorator, furniture designer, tastemaker and thinker whose innovative ideas in interior design during the postwar era have had a formative impact on American interior taste. In the emergence of middleclass US-American style during the formative years of modernism the studied architect has a significant role in steering popular taste away from Art Moderne toward a genuine US-American modernism shared with Paul Mccobb, Estelle & Levine Laverne and Edward Wormley.
