Designer Hee Welling sought to develop a chair with undeniable simplicity for the About A Chair collection. An understated, clean design for a chair that works just as well around a dining room table as it does around a conference table, in a canteen or in an office. The designer's aim is to combine form, function, detail and aesthetics. Produced by Danish company Hay, this collection features a wide range of colours and structures. In 2011, Hee Welling added to the collection with stools and armchairs that follow the same philosophy. About A Stool is offered here with a wooden base to fit perfectly into any environment. Just like the chair, it ensures optimal comfort and perfectly symbolises the purity and understated, timeless style of Scandinavian design.
Hay was founded in 2002 to promote Danish design. The company Hay reinterprets the classic forms of Nordic design with a modern approach, offering friendly, aesthetic, and functional creations. Hay draws inspiration from three main areas: art, architecture, and fashion, while paying close attention to the environment and contemporary culture. The Hay chairs, like the brand’s entire furniture collection, perfectly embody this spirit: a sleek and timeless design, combining comfort and functionality with modern and minimalist lines. The Palissade outdoor collection is a must-have from the brand HAY, designed by French brothers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec.
