Hay - Soft Edge Chair

Stackable Wooden Chair

The Soft Edge Chair by Hay features an innovative design, which ensures a high degree of comfort. Despite its simple look, the chair was realized using the latest production techniques. Already in the 50s, people experimented with the possibilities of standard veneers, but soon came to its limits. Boris Berlin and Aleksej Iskos took the challenge anew, together with Hay. The result is the Soft Edge Chair. A reduced, very light and stackable chair which allows "dynamic sitting" with a softly moulded seat and back.

The idea of a rigid posture is absolutely obsolete. The manner, we have shaped the seat and the backrest: it was our aim to not only form the front or side, which means that you can actually move on the chair. That's what makes it so comfortable. Dynamic comfort is the only comfort that is normal for our body. While we're sitting we are moving all the time, that’s our natural urge. It is to be extremely, unnatural to sit without moving at all. _{designer Iskos-Berlin}
