Wim Den Boon was a Dutch designer, interior designer and architect. Boon was a dogmatic man who believed strongly in the transforming capacities of architecture and design. Boon was affected by the architecture of Le Corbusier, De Stijl and Rietveld. Boon studied at the Academy for Visual Arts in The Hague in 1941. In 1945, he founded Groep & together with Hein Stolle and Pierre Kleykam, a group that manifested itself after the war with interiors and design, such as the furniture of the international departure hall of Schiphol in 1948. Den Boon was the editorial secretary of the magazine from 1948–50. Den Boon has written several articles for Goed Wonen, which was the most prominent magazine for interior design in the 1940s and 1950s. His articles are almost strictly educational. Boon's dogmatic character and the austere tone of his articles resulted in too much controversy, which forced him to resign from the magazine in 1950.
