Mid-century furniture by Hay (Denmark)

HAY is a Danish design company known for its contemporary furniture, accessories, and lighting. Founded in 2002 by Rolf Hay and Mette Hay, along with their business partner Troels Holch Povlsen, HAY has become a prominent player in the world of modern Scandinavian design. While HAY itself is a relatively young company, it draws inspiration from the rich tradition of mid-century Danish furniture design and collaborates with both established and emerging designers to create innovative and affordable products.

HAY's designs draw heavily from the mid-century Danish modern design movement, which emerged in the mid-20th century. This period was marked by clean lines, simplicity, and a focus on functionality and craftsmanship. Designers like Arne Jacobsen, Hans Wegner, and Børge Mogensen are some of the iconic figures from this era who continue to inspire HAY's designs. As well, HAY collaborates with a wide range of designers, both more... established and up-and-coming, to create its products. Some notable designers who have worked with HAY include Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, Hee Welling, and Stefan Diez.

Over the years, HAY has expanded its global presence, with flagship stores and retailers carrying its products in cities around the world. This expansion has contributed to the brand's international recognition and appeal.

Hay has quickly become one of the most popular furniture brands in the world. Its products are sold in over 60 countries and have been featured in magazines such as Wallpaper* and Architectural Digest. less...
