Hee Bar Stool
The absence of
superfluous details in the Hee Bar Stool seems even more pronounced by its
height and the presence of long slender legs. The ultimate in elemental design,
this versatile bar/counter stool has a simple, uncluttered expression with
excellent stability. Stackable and weather-proof, the Hee Bar Stool can be used
in outdoor surroundings, as well as inside restaurants, bars and in the home.

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. |
