The son of a cabinetmaker and raised in the Scandinavian design tradition, Hee Welling understands the power of simple, logical and useful solutions. He’s a graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, and the founder of his eponymous design studio. While exhibiting at the Copenhagen design fair in 2004, Welling met Rolf and Mette Hay of the Danish design company HAY. This kicked off a partnership and several successful launches, one of which was the About A Chair (2009). Now a collection of 30 different products and one of the bestselling chairs in Scandinavia, About A Chair began with a desire to tell a story about a chair, thus its name. With its gently curved, comfortable seat and sculptural wood base, AAC 123 offers pleasing proportions and a quietly elegant aesthetic for residential and commercial settings. Choose from standard and soft versions. Made in China.
