George Nelson Associates, Inc. had a lot of design talent during it's glory days. Designers who worked for the office included Irving Harper, George Mulhauser (very much believed to be the designer of the Coconut Chair), Robert Brownjohn (worked to create movie sets including James Bond's Goldfinger), Gordon Chadwick, Bill Renwick, Suzanne Sekey, Ernest Farmer, Tobias O'Mara, George Tscherney (responsible for Herman Miller advertisements), Lance Wyman, John Pile. Influenced by the postwar emphasis of the Space Age and a science fiction aesthetic, Nelson and his associates introduced chairs that utilized a playful approach to designing the shape of an item. Nelson once stated, "When the walls disappear, the only place left for furniture is out in the open. Hence, the silhouette becomes important." In 1956, George Nelson and design associate George Mulhauser introduced the Coconut Chair , whose iconic silhouette has shaped its successful history.
