HAL RE Wood chair

Responsible design, woody elegance and ecological innovation signed Jasper Morrison for Vitra

The HAL RE Wood chair belongs to the HAL collection designed by Jasper Morrison for Vitra, in a sustainable version incorporating a recycled plastic (RE) shell and a solid wood base. This model combines warm aesthetics, environmental awareness and contemporary functionality.

The RE label indicates that the shell is made from recycled polypropylene, derived from household waste, limiting the carbon footprint and promoting a more virtuous production cycle. Coupled with an oak base (light or dark), this version stands out for its elegant, responsible look.

Refined design and sustainable finishes

The RE shell is solution-dyed, with pigment particles giving it a subtle texture and slightly shaded appearance.

The solid wood base (natural oak or dark oak) gives the chair a presence that is both robust and harmonious.

A discreet cast aluminium linking element connects the shell to the wooden structure, ensuring strength without weighing down the design.

Sustainable comfort and ergonomics

The shell’s enveloping shape provides natural support for the body, while the controlled flexibility of the recycled plastic allows slight movement for added comfort.

The chair promotes a relaxed, fluid posture, without excessive rigidity, while maintaining correct back support.

Optional seat cushions can be added to maximise comfort depending on use.

Technical structure and stability

The solid wood base ensures lasting stability.

Adaptable glides allow the chair to be adjusted to different types of flooring (carpet, parquet, tiles).

The chair is not designed to be stacked, prioritising sturdiness and structural continuity.

The RE shell is recyclable at the end of its life, in a circular economy logic.

Polyvalence and aesthetic adaptation

The HAL RE Wood fits effectively into a variety of environments:

• Contemporary dining rooms: a combination of wood and responsible design;

• Design meeting spaces: a warm atmosphere with an environmental conscience;

• Home offices: responsible elegance and comfortable seating;

• Eco-responsible environments: sustainable furniture consistent with a green approach.

This version combines with the other HAL variants (plastic, wood, upholstered) to form coherent, harmonious ensembles.
