HAY
Founded in Copenhagen in 2002 with the ambition to make inspired furniture and accessories for modern living, HAY continues to create high-quality, well-designed products in collaboration with some of the world’s most talented designers.
Founded in Copenhagen in 2002 by Troels Holch Povlsen and Rolf and Mette Hay, the company is a leader in ancillary furnishings in Europe and Asia, and active in both the contract and residential furnishing markets.
HAY’s proven success as a fast-growing global company, and its deep catalog of high-quality, well-designed furniture and accessories makes it a welcome and transformative addition to Herman Miller’s family of brands. HAY extends Herman Miller’s global reach and dramatically expands the company’s offering of furnishings and accessories for the home, contract, and hospitality markets.
“HAY is one of the best articulated design brands in the furnishings space,” said Herman Miller CEO Brian Walker. “HAY is a key building block toward our stated priority to scale our consumer business. The HAY assortment will significantly expand our offer to a younger, more urban demographic that we have targeted for expansion.”
Walker continued: “With more workplaces and commercial spaces adopting a residential feel, the opportunity to offer quality designs at an attainable price point is only expanding. Adding HAY’s considerable stable of products to our ancillary offer further cements Herman Miller’s ability to deliver excellent design to customers regardless of budget or what kind of space they’re outfitting.”
