HAY
In 2002, HAY was established as a new kind of design company in Denmark. Motivated by the certainty that good design is everyone’s right, HAY set out to innovate new ways to answer the ever-evolving needs of the modern world – but at a more accessible price point than industry standards.
At HAY, everything we make draws from three primary sources of inspiration: art, architecture, and fashion. We have always paid close attention to and been inspired by our surroundings, and putting our finger on the pulse of contemporary culture.
Our vision
HAY has always believed that good design is everyone’s right. That’s why, from the very beginning, co-founders and Creative Directors Mette and Rolf Hay committed to working with their generation’s best designers from all over the world to create high-quality products that would be available to a wide audience. This founding principle continues to motivate us today.
What we do
We are inspired by the realities of life today, in which traditional divides between personal and professional space are more fluid, so our furniture, lighting, and accessories can be used in a diversity of environments and suit many needs. From a toothbrush to a paper bin to a sofa, HAY products always offer a fresh take on the quotidian objects that are part of our everyday.
