The upholstered Rely armchair by & Tradition has an ecological shell entirely made of recycled plastic. The raw material is the result of a search for materials that lasted more than a year. Il comes from plastics found inside cars. After being crushed into small pieces, the plastic is mixed with color and readied for injection moulding..

The Rely chair has been designed by the Danish designer Hee Welling, known for his art of fusing simplicity and practicality. Its sober aesthetic masks the extreme care that has been taken in its ergonomics, each of its curves having been developed to ensure optimal support for the back.

Hee Welling

Hee Welling

Hee Welling (born 1974) is an award-winning furniture designer. In addition to being exhibited at fairs and museums worldwide, his products can be found in a diverse array of interiors, from The Oslo Opera House to Australia’s parliament.

Raised in the Danish countryside, Welling’s lifelong appreciation for the outdoors can be seen in the honest minimalism of his pieces. Each of his creations is united by a distinctive visual identity as he focuses on clean lines and simple silhouettes. Welling works with a wide array of materials, with wood and metals used alongside non-natural elements like plastic.

While decidedly modern, Welling’s work sits within the broader context of the Scandinavian design tradition. As such, his pieces are underpinned by a belief in function as the cornerstone of furniture design. Looking to Old Masters like Arne Jacobsen and Hans J. Wegner, he seeks to continue their legacy with carefully crafted pieces that prioritize logic. No detail, Welling believes, should be superfluous. Instead, he works through an intuitive design process to ensure that each of his pieces is optimized to its highest purpose.

Welling attended The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts for his bachelor’s degree, with one semester studying at The University of Art and Design in Helsinki. He went on to gain a master’s in furniture design from the Academy. In 2003, he established his eponymous studio in Copenhagen.
