Designed by Gudmundur Ludvik for HAY, Backflip is a flexible, versatile chair for everyday use. It is easily stored, hung, or removed and placed as needed, without compromising on comfort or appearance. Balancing aesthetics and technical performance, it is shaped by a clear focus on function and ergonomics, with form emerging from its materials and construction. Crafted in solid wood with a molded plywood backrest, its simple appearance conceals a refined mechanism within the backrest, allowing the chair to fold and unfold in a smooth motion—bringing flexibility and ease of use.
