The idea behind the About A Chair collection, designed by Hee Welling, is to develop a chair with an obvious simplicity. A sober and pure design for this chair that works equally well around a dining room table, a conference table or in an office. The designer's ambition is to combine form, function, detail and aesthetics. The Danish company Hay has released this collection, which presents a wide range of colours and structures. With its five-star base on castors, the small AAC 153 combines optimum functionality with modern aesthetics. Maintaining the same high backrest and generous seat that characterise the series, Hay has designed a base with a gas lift piston that allows the seat height to be adjusted over a range of 14 cm. The shell is available in a variety of upholstery options, offering a multitude of design combinations that give this series great versatility.
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.
