The HAY Design Team

HAY’s in house design team develops products that are credited simply as “Design by HAY” or “HAY Design Team”, sitting alongside the brand’s wider collaborations with external designers.

Working under the same principles that shape HAY as a whole, the team focuses on practical, well resolved objects for modern living, designed to move comfortably between home and workplace. HAY’s approach draws from art, architecture and fashion, with an emphasis on functionality and clean, contemporary forms.

Across furniture, accessories and lighting, HAY Design Team pieces tend to be the quiet foundations of a scheme, simple silhouettes, durable materials, and details that hold up to daily use. Well known ranges like the Mags sofa series are commonly attributed to the in house team.
