HAY’s successful collaboration with Muller Van Severen continues with the Ceramic Table - an outdoor table characterised by the designers’ signature minimalistic expression combined with their bold use of colour.
The Ceramic Table is a perfect example of the Belgian designers’ signature minimalistic expression. With a porcelain tabletop standing on a concrete base, it draws together a strong sense of proportions and a solid presence of colour. Its simplicity and intuitive design give it a universal appeal that makes it suitable for a wide range of spaces.
”It was clear that this table is very universal,” says Rolf Hay, cofounder of HAY. ”It doesn’t matter what chair you put around it, they all work perfectly, and this is what you get when you work with something with great proportions and simple language”.
Muller Van Severen was founded in 2011 by Belgian artist duo Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen. The couple has always been on an inspired quest for sculpturally interesting furniture objects, and their work sits somewhere between design and art, drawing on their passion for architecture and materials. They have won countless awards and collaborated with prestigious museums worldwide (such as Vitra Museum, Centre Pompidou and Musée des Arts Décoratifs Paris) and international galleries (Galerie Kreo, Side Gallery, Valerie Traan Gallery).
For HAY, Muller Van Severen has designed the Two-Colour Table, Colour Cabinet, the Arcs Lamp Shades, Arcs Candleholder and Arcs Vase, MVS Cutlery and Ceramic Table.
