The AAC 121 Soft Duo counterbalances its soft quilted shell and contrasting materials with the more formal expression of the aluminium swivel base.
Retaining the same high backrest and generous seat that characterises the series, this design features a functional base with legs that fan out from the centre. The base is available in polished or powder-coated aluminium, and the quilted shell is offered with two different textiles or leathers to create a unique look that works equally well in corporate, public, or private contexts.
Hee Welling & HAY
‘Hee has a great sense of proportions, form and aesthetic, and he remains punctual and reliable throughout the process. Hee designs things that are a pleasure to look at – like the About a-series, which has gradually expanded to include some thirty different models, in clear testimony to the strong qualities at the heart of the product.’ Rolf Hay.´ Rolf Hay
As a child, Hee Welling spent endless hours in his dad’s cabinetmaker’s workshop, building models, exploring technical possibilities and decoding the potentials of materials. His work is still firmly rooted in the Scandinavian design tradition that defined his father’s profession, but he has added an industrial edge that embraces modern possibilities. Over the years, Hee’s work with the furniture models inspired him to apply to the furniture department of the design school; once enrolled, he gradually realised that it was the industrial approach that ultimately held his passion.
The combination of technological possibilities and simple, functional design is Hee Welling’s drive and the hallmark that he has refined over the past ten years. ‘I’m deeply fascinated with production techniques, machinery and materials and with creating products that reach a wide audience.’
