The "Slit" side table, designed by Hay, combines simplicity and elegance through its origami-inspired design. With its contemporary, graphic geometric lines, this black wooden table creates a dynamic visual effect and plays with the perception of volume. Versatile and adaptable, the Slit table can be used alone or combined in groups, making it perfectly suited for various private or public environments.
The Slit table is distinguished by its 10 mm plywood tabletop and base, covered in oak veneer and finished with an environmentally friendly water-based lacquer. This side table is not only functional and durable, but also a true work of art, ideal for adding a touch of modernity to any space. Weighing 11 kg, it offers optimal stability.
The design
HAY does not name a designer for the Slit series: the brand signs it with its own name. The design relies on the structure itself: a slim frame that appears folded under the tabletop, much like a paper folding.
The Slit series is not attributed to any outside designer: HAY does not name any author on its Slit page, and the series does not appear on the profile of any of its designers. The company works with independent designers on a large part of its catalogue and signs the rest with its own name, generally for pieces where function dictates form. This is the case here: a tabletop and a slim frame that seems folded underneath, inspired by paper-folding techniques.
