Wanting to put sustainability at the forefront of his design, Welling eventually decided on recycled plastic from inner car components to make the chair’s ergonomic shell. Available in six colours and fabrics, its clean-lined, versatile design makes it ideal for multiple functions. From £195, &Tradition (andtradition.com).
