Description

HAY’s X-Line chair combines lightness with elegance, making the chair a stylish choice for terraces, gardens and living rooms alike. Made of thin steel, the X-Line chair is based on a simple geometric leg structure that is shaped like the letter X. This design provides stability and strength to the sitter, while also delivering an aesthetically appealing design that subtly flirts with industrial influences.

The X-Line chair was originally designed in 1977 by architect Niels Jørgen Haugesen and manufactured by Magnus Olesen until 2025. Now, the Danish design brand HAY has reintroduced the metal chair to the delight of modern design enthusiasts.

Niels Jørgen Haugesen

Niels Jørgen Haugesen (1936–2013) was a renowned Danish furniture designer, best known as the creator of the iconic X-line chair collection launched in 1977. After completing his training as a cabinetmaker in 1956 and graduating as a furniture architect in 1961, Haugesen worked for Arne Jacobsen in the late 1960s before venturing out to establish his own design studio in 1971. Alongside his design work, he also shared his expertise as a teacher at the Danish Design School.

In addition to the minimalist X-line chairs, Haugesen designed an array of furniture inspired by the principles of functionalism, including the Fleur chair (1998) and Distance sofa (2002). His designs have graced art and design museums worldwide, and he was awarded the prestigious Danish ID Prize two times.
