About the designer: Rajmund Teofil Halas (born May 31, 1925 in Krobi, Wielkopolska, died November 4, 2008 in Poznan) - visual artist, architect, designer, teacher. In the mid-nineteenth century, the carpentry workshop was run by his great-grandfather Jakub Weclawski. His heir was his son-in-law Franciszek Halas, and then his son Teofil. The factory built by Teofil in 1922 in Krobi and employing several dozen workers was to be taken over by his sons Zygmunt and Rajmund Teofil. The plant supplied townspeople, local farmers and manors, among others in Pepowo, Gola, Pudliszki up to the palace of the princes Czartoryski in Rokosowo and many others. He exported furniture to Vienna and Berlin. In 1939, after the outbreak of World War II, 14-year-old Rajmund Teofil started working in his father's factory, taken over by a local German, Fritz Fogt. From September 1945, he continued his education at the Carpentry and Sculpting Gymnasium in Cieplice Zdrój. At that time, he passed the exam for a carpentry master in Wroclaw. In 1951, he began studies at the PWSSP in Poznan at the Faculty of Interior Architecture, and he graduated in 1957, preparing a diploma thesis under the supervision of prof. Jerzy Staniszkis. He was buried in the churchyard of the parish of St. Jakub in Zabno near Mosina.
