Price History
Description
The Visu Chair offers a fresh interpretation of the classic wooden chair. Crafted from form-pressed veneer, its gently curved seat and backrest create a balanced profile that feels both light and comfortable. The slender base enhances the chair’s refined simplicity, making it well suited to dining spaces, home offices or commercial interiors where modern Scandinavian design meets everyday functionality. Designed by Mika Tolvanen, reflecting the clarity and simplicity of contemporary Scandinavian design. Available in Dusty Green and Dark Green finishes for a subtle yet distinctive colour accent.
Our Stylist Says
The Muuto Visu Chair with the wood base in dark green is a versatile and contemporary piece, ideal for adding a pop of colour and texture to dining rooms, offices, or lounge areas. I love its clean, minimalist shape combined with the rich green hue, making it a statement without overpowering. It's well-suited to interiors with Scandi, modern, or even eclectic styles. For styling, consider pairing it with natural materials like wood or linen to enhance its organic vibe, or use it as an accent in a neutral space to create visual interest. Practical tips include keeping surrounding furniture simple to highlight the chair’s colour and form, and perhaps adding cushions or throws for extra comfort and colour layering.

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.
