Slit High Table Ø 35

The Slit High table by Hay is a remarkable illustration of modern Danish design, drawing inspiration from the delicate art of origami. This side table, made of polished steel, features a sophisticated geometric design. The slender frame, which appears to be folded under the tabletop, creates a sculptural silhouette reminiscent of Japanese origami. Available in a range of shapes, sizes, and finishes, the Slit table is a versatile choice for various environments, whether private or public. Its silver finish adds a touch of contemporary refinement to any space.

The design

The Slit series is not attributed to any external designer: HAY does not name an author on its Slit page, and the series does not appear on any of its designers' portfolios. The company works with independent designers for 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 thin frame that seems folded underneath, inspired by paper-folding techniques.
