Herit is short for heritage. The simple and honest style that characterises Danish furniture history stands as a clear frame of reference for a collection drenched in nostalgia.

Yet Herit is just as much a design that looks forward. Innovative production methods, new material compositions and timeless silhouettes give life to a chair that stands tall on its own.

Herit reflects Simon Legald’s love of classic Danish furniture craftsmanship, but rose from a desire to design a versatile and strong chair that unites the different eras of Danish design.

A chair in which oak and plastic merge in tactful synergy, to create a hard-wearing, maintenance-friendly and accessible design, made for modern life. While the backrest is plastic, this version has added comfort with an upholstered textile seat.

The path of the curves is by no means random; it is precisely designed to follow the shape of the body and create the correct support in the seated position.

Herit is a chair that truly unfolds its beauty as you move around it and observe the transitions of shapes.

The balanced materials complete a design expression that is contemporary and everlasting. With tradition and renewal combined in equal measure, Herit is a hybrid of time that transcends styles and periods.

Whether it moves into a classic apartment, a modernist building or post-modern architecture, it inhabits the space with natural ease and subtle grace.
