Description

Vitra’s HAL lounge chair is Jasper Morrison’s interpretation of a classic high-back armchair. The HAL lounge chair combines rounded oak legs with a flowingly shaped seat shell with removable seat and neck cushions. The shell is fully upholstered in wool fabric Credo, which has a vivid multitone surface and excellent heat exchange properties. The sleek and understated expression makes the HAL lounge chair well suited also for smaller rooms, public spaces or in the middle of the room.

According to designer Jasper Morrison’s design philosophy, something considered normal is usually more useable than something special – that’s why the HAL chair collection is based on clear, functional principles. The timeless combination of plastic seat and wooden legs create a versatile collection of chairs for various different spaces and needs.

Jasper Morrison

Jasper Morrison (b. 1959) is one of the most successful industrial designers of his generation. He is known for an aesthetic and quietly humorous style that often aims at understated everyday functionality. A graduate from the Kingston Polytechnic and Royal College of Art, Morrison opened his own studio in London in 1986, and today he has offices also in Paris and Tokyo. He has designed products from tableware to tram systems and collaborated with brands such as Alessi, Vitra, Nikari, Flos, Fredericia and Iittala. Morrison’s work has been exhibited around the world, and in 2001 he was awarded the Royal Designer for Industry distinction by the British Royal Society of Arts.
