HAY Compass

Compass by Julien Renault rethinks the classic pendant using a precise conical shade with clean, uncluttered geometry. The family includes fixed pendants in two sizes and a counterweighted, height adjustable model that moves smoothly between task light and shared ambient light. The result is a versatile system for kitchens, dining tables, meeting areas, and hospitality spaces.

Spun aluminium components keep the silhouette crisp while maintaining a light visual footprint. The adjustable version introduces a counterweight assembly for accurate positioning, useful when ceilings are high or activities change across the day. Each pendant uses a replaceable retrofit bulb, making specification, maintenance, and future upgrades straightforward.

Compass balances clarity and warmth. The soft, downward pool sits comfortably over tables and islands, while the wider field of light keeps the room legible. Offered in refined finishes from brushed aluminium to soft colourways, Compass suits both domestic and office environments where timeless form and reliable function matter.
