The AAC 23 Dining Chair offers functional simplicity and modern aesthetics in a timeless chair design. HAY fuses the natural elegance and character of a four-legged wooden base with the softness and warmth of an upholstered shell. Retaining the same high backrest and encapsulating seat that characterises the series, this design features a solid base with angled legs that slant slightly outwards for optimal stability.
The oak base is available in different finishes and the shell is offered in a variety of upholstery options, providing a multitude of design combinations that give this series versatility in a wide range of home, corporate and public contexts.
The About series is HAY's most versatile furniture series. It began with a chair and blossomed into a series with virtually unlimited potential. With the About series, Hee Welling has proven that a single strong idea can hold a wealth of development options. Today, the series includes dining and conference chairs, office chairs, bar stools, lounge chairs, tables, a foot stool and a sofa which is equally perfect for private and public settings.
