HAY Backflip Folding Chair | Holloways of Ludlow

The HAY Backflip Folding Chair, designed by Gudmundur Ludvik, brings brilliant everyday flexibility to modern living spaces without compromising on style or comfort. Crafted with a solid wood frame and a gently curved moulded plywood backrest, this versatile seat balances clean lines with high technical performance. Its clever hidden mechanism inside the backrest allows you to fold and unfold the chair in one smooth motion using just one hand, making it effortless to set up for extra guests or pack away when you need clear floor space.

Made from sturdy natural beech wood, the chair remains completely stable when open. There is an optional HAY Backflip Wall Bracket, crafted in beech with two sturdy horizontal rods designed to hold up to two folded chairs off the floor. This smart wall storage solution keeps your room tidy and turns the folded chairs into a neat, space saving feature when they are not in use. The carefully shaped backrest supports your posture naturally, giving you a proper, comfortable seat rather than a typical rigid spare chair.

This space saving wooden seating set looks wonderful mounted in a hallway, placed around a compact kitchen table, or kept ready in a dining room. Its simple silhouette and warm timber finish blend beautifully with natural oak tables, soft wool rugs, and minimalist modern interiors. Perfect for both everyday dining and unexpected visitors, it delivers practical storage solutions alongside timeless Scandinavian design.
