The HAY About A Stool AAS38, designed by Hee Welling, offers a contemporary interpretation of bar and counter seating, combining a distinctive curved seat with a bold, architectural steel frame.
Its balanced proportions and considered detailing make it a versatile choice for interiors that favour understated design with a more industrial edge.
A defining element of the design is its continuous sled base, formed from powder-coated solid steel in a black finish. The frame creates a strong visual outline beneath the seat, while the integrated footrest provides additional support and comfort. Above, the generously shaped polypropylene shell features a gently curved backrest and integrated armrests, allowing for a relaxed seating position. Made using 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, the shell also introduces a more considered material choice to the collection.
Available in a selection of contemporary colours, the AAS38 can be specified in two different heights to accommodate kitchen counters and taller bar surfaces. Optional felt glides provide additional protection for hard flooring, making it suitable for a variety of domestic and commercial settings. Whether positioned around a kitchen island, incorporated into a breakfast bar or used within a café or restaurant, the HAY About A Stool AAS38 offers a practical seating solution with a confident design presence. The combination of its recycled plastic seat, durable steel construction and recognisable Scandinavian aesthetic makes it a versatile addition to modern interiors.
