The HAL Wood chair by Jasper Morrison is part of the multifaceted HAL family.
The striking combination of a plastic seat shell and four-legged wooden base lends the chair its unique character. The comfortable seat shell is available in a selection of colours, whilst the chair legs come in a choice of three high-quality woods.
Seat shell
Dyed-through polypropylene, with optional seat cushion (screwed to the seat shell).
Base
Non-stackable wooden base in natural oak, dark oak or black-pigmented walnut. Connecting element between shell and base in die-cast aluminium, powder-coated in dim grey.
Glides
Colour matched to the small attachment parts for the seat shell, choice of white (except HAL Wood and HAL Ply Wood) or basic dark. All bases fitted with glides for carpet; felt glides optionally available for hard floors.
Jasper Morrison
Known for thinking outside the box, Jasper Morrison is one of the most successful industrial designers of the past few decades. Together with his colleague Naoto Fukasawa, he defined the term 'super normal', which in his opinion answers the question of what 'good design' should really be. In his work, he strives to create good examples of understated, useful and responsible design. Morrison has developed several projects in collaboration with Vitra, including the Basel Chair, the Place Sofa and the HAL chair family. His designs are represented in New York's Museum of Modern Art and other prominent museum collections around the world.
Swiss manufacturer Vitra’s collections of furniture and lighting bring together the colour, culture and sophistication of the world’s most prominent designers.
