Hee Lounge
With its wide,
welcoming seat and low height, Hee Lounge is definitely the most laid-back
model in the Hee series. Although the elemental design is manifested here in
more relaxed proportions, it still retains the same light, understated
aesthetics and functional properties as the rest of the family. Stackable and
weather-proof, the Hee Lounge Chair can be used in outdoor surroundings, as
well as inside restaurants, bars and in a home environment.

Hee Welling |
Hee Welling is a Danish furniture
designer who founded his own studio in Copenhagen in 2003. Welling has received
a number of design awards, including the Bo Bedre Award (Denmark), Good Design
Award (USA) and has been nominated as the Danish designer of the year in both
2013 and 2014. Welling is the son of a cabinetmaker, and his 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
(where he is also now a design tutor). His design ethos is centred around the
idea of creating technically accomplished products that can reach a wide
audience. His work is characterised by a great sense of proportion and quietly
elegant looks. For HAY, Welling has designed the About A series and the Hee
Chair, Lounge Chair and Bar Stool. |
