{"title":"Wim Rietveld","description":"Dutch industrial designer Wim Rietveld (1924–1985)—son of De Stijl pioneer Gerrit Rietveld—was an essential protagonist in shaping post-war Dutch functionalism. Trained at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, Rietveld rejected elitist luxury in favor of affordable, mass-produced furniture characterized by functional honesty and industrial efficiency.\n\nRietveld left an indelible mark during his tenure at Gispen, where he designed the flexible Model 1407 armchair and the Panama balancing wall lamp. Later joining De Cirkel, he co-designed the legendary Result Chair and Pyramid Table (1958) alongside Friso Kramer. Constructed from cutout sheet steel and molded plywood, these pieces (reissued today by HAY and Ahrend) became ubiquitous icons of European mid-century schools and offices.","products":[{"product_id":"pyramid-01-table-160x65-cm-matt-lacquered-oak-beige-powder-coated-steel-frame","title":"Pyramid 01 Table 160x65 cm","description":"Designed to be functional, light and strong, the Pyramid Table features a steel-sheet base with a rectangular oak tabletop. Originally created by Wim Rietveld while working at Ahrend in the 1950s, the cutout steel collection has been relaunched by HAY together with Ahrend. The table comes in two models – with and without overhang – and is suitable for using in a wide range of educational institutions, corporate environments and private homes. Both variants are available in a variety of wood finishes and base colours that can be coordinated with the Result Chair and the Pyramid Bench.","brand":"HAY","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":49801911533889,"sku":null,"price":6239.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/4150\/0993\/files\/0e2e44c0-3da2-4f58-bc9c-19057477d185.webp?v=1793218933"},{"product_id":"pyramid-coffee-table-51-o60-cm-oiled-oak-black-steel","title":"Pyramid Coffee Table 51 Ø60 cm","description":"This coffee table is part of a series by HAY, characterized by its round, organic forms and clean lines.

Built on an innovative foundation of cutout sheet steel, the piece bypasses traditional tubular framing in favor of an exceptionally light, hardwearing, and structurally rigid profile that was originally hailed for giving a new, organic direction to post-war industrial design. Its architectural blueprint features a sleek, powder-coated steel base that elegantly tapers outward to form its namesake pyramidal support, perfectly counterbalancing a heavy-duty, 21 mm solid oak top defined by its clean, straight-edged overhang. Certified to extreme public-use standards (EN 16139:2013 L2), this uncluttered design operates with absolute material sparsity, offering a highly adaptable aesthetic that effortlessly scales from a minimalist low side table or entryway accent in domestic spaces to high-traffic, collaborative seating configurations in modern corporate and educational environments. Available in spans of 190 cm or 250 cm and rendered in versatile oiled, smoked, or lacquered oak tops paired with black or beige metal work, the bench serves as a Masterclass in Nordic utility, where structural resilience and aesthetic lightness flawlessly coalesce.","brand":"HAY","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":49800786477377,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/4150\/0993\/files\/c9ab60b9-62fb-4aad-aee4-f62c893a6b63.webp?v=1793218924"},{"product_id":"pyramid-bench-12","title":"Pyramid Bench 12 - L190 x D40 x H46 cm","description":"The Pyramid Bench 12, originally designed by Wim Rietveld in 1959 during his tenure at Ahrend and brilliantly relaunched by HAY in collaboration with the Dutch manufacturer, stands as a triumph of mid-century industrial functionalism and geometric economy.
