The article discusses the historical development of industrial design education in the Royal College of Art, London, and the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design, Wroclaw. There were many similarities in the establishment of the School of Industrial Design and Katedra Wzornictwa (Department of Design) in terms of historical times, theoretical basis and initial experiments. However, diverse political, economic and social situations of the next decades affected the activities and output of both units. This process can be traced in the professional profiles of two designers who graduated and have been members of staff in each institution. Daniel Weil and Piotr Jedrzejewski embody the similarities and differences between the Polish and British design profession.
