About a Lounge AAL 92
The About A Lounge Chair has a compact body with shaped armrests combined with round wooden legs. In line with the rest of the series, the sculpted design has been kept simple, with nothing left to chance. It is available in a low-backed version with a more intimate expression or a high-backed version with an open, spacious composition. The high-backed About A Lounge Chair is designed to create a cohesive look with the matching About an Ottoman, but it also functions perfectly on its own. The wide choice of cushions, legs and upholsteries mean you can configure unique combinations that fit a variety of public and private contexts. Optional seat cushion mounted with Velcro.
About a Lounge / Designer
Hee Welling is a Danish furniture designer who founded his own studio in Copenhagen in 2003. The son of a cabinetmaker, Welling’s fascination with production techniques, materials, and machinery was fired as a child. He went on to study at The University of Art and Design in Helsinki, and received his master’s degree in furniture design from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. Centred around the idea of creating technically accomplished products that can reach a wide audience, his designs are characterised by a great sense of proportion and quietly elegant aesthetics.
Welling has received a number of design awards, including the Bo Bedre Award (Denmark), Good Design Award (USA), and has been nominated as Danish designer of the year in 2013 and 2014. For HAY, Welling has designed the About A series and the Hee Collection.
