Fred Lounge Chair
Description
The latest collaboration between Jaime Hayon and Fritz Hansen has a new identity.
Fred™ - meaning ‘peaceful’ in Danish – is a casual nickname and nod to the comfort and good vibes that accompany the chair wherever it’s used.
Fred™ draws inspiration from pelicans’ broad wings, gently curved bodies and distinctive bills. The lounge chair has a lightness and gracefulness that truly disguises its strength. Fred’s open, low silhouette is elegant from every angle and has a contemporary look.

Jaime Hayon
Jaime Hayon is a Spanish artist and designer. As a teenager, he submerged himself in skateboard culture and graffiti art, the foundation of the detailed, bold-yet-whimsical imagery so imminent in his work today. After studying industrial design in Madrid and Paris he joined Fabrica in 1997, the Benetton-funded design and communication academy, working closely with the legendary image-maker and agitator Oliviero Toscani. In a short time he was promoted from student to head of their Design Department. Eight years later, Jaime broke out on his own, first with his collections of designer toys, ceramics and furniture, later followed by interior design and installations.
