Fri is an easy chair designed by Jaime Hayon for Fritz Hansen, characterised by a soft, sculpted upholstered form that balances visual refinement with genuine physical comfort. Hayon developed the chair with a concern for both appearance and the quality of the seated experience — the form is shaped to support the body naturally while presenting a coherent, resolved silhouette from every angle.
The chair's name — derived from the Scandinavian word for freedom — reflects its design intent: a piece that invites relaxed, unconstrained use in residential and professional settings alike. The upholstered shell form and carefully considered proportions give the Fri a visual warmth that distinguishes it from more angular or architectural lounge chairs, while its refined detailing and material quality position it clearly within the premium segment of the Fritz Hansen collection.
The Fri works well in residential living rooms and private lounges, and its sophisticated character makes it an appropriate specification for hotel rooms, executive areas, and hospitality environments where comfort and design quality are equally important. Available in a range of Fritz Hansen fabrics and leathers.
The wooden frame is available in multiple finishes, and the upholstery options span Fritz Hansen's comprehensive fabric and leather range for precise interior specification.
Available as a 2D DWG drawing, 3D model, Revit file and ArchiCAD file.
