HAY was founded in 2002 and the furniture collection was launched at IMM Cologne in 2003. HAY's ambition is to encourage Danish furniture design’s return to the innovative greatness of the 1950’s and 1960’s in a contemporary context.

An ambition that has not changed. It is still a great inspiration and keeps they inspired and motivated every day in creating meaningful and sincere design. HAY celebrates the uncomplicated design and strives to stay solid, straight-forward, joyful and functional.
