Description
Re-Chair designed by Antonio Citterio is made from recycled materials. The result is a chair produced according to sustainable principles, characterised by bold, square lines which succeed in creating a sense of lightness and solidity all at once. The style of Re-Chair means it can be positioned in various different parts of the home, from the dining room to the study. Perfect for the Habitat setting, the chair is also an ideal piece for Office use. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, Re-Chair is stackable.
Our Stylist Says
I love the clean, minimalist silhouette of the Re-Chair Dove, which makes it versatile for many interior styles, from modern to Scandinavian-inspired schemes. Its sleek black finish adds a touch of sophistication while maintaining simplicity, allowing it to work well in a variety of settings - whether paired with a light timber dining table for contrast or in a monochrome colour scheme for a stylish, understated look. Practical styling tips include layering it with textured cushions or throws for added comfort, or using contrasting tableware and accessories to highlight its design. Its understated elegance makes it an easy choice for both everyday family dining and more formal dinners, making it a truly adaptable piece.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
