A functional classic. Pyramid Desk by Ahrend for HAY. Made with sparing use of materials and light enough to move around, the Pyramid desk is recognised as a 1950s classic. Danish giant HAY has reconfigured this timeless design to enableultra-simplistic assembly and modular construction options, with a very affordable price.Designed to be functional, light and strong, the Pyramid Desk 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.

When initially launched in the ‘50s, the Pyramid table collection was regarded as a triumph in its innovative use of sheet steel, giving new direction for use in organically shaped products. Today, both as individual pieces and as a collection, it is notable for its sparing use of materials, simplistic construction and for being light enough to move around. These lasting designs manifest functional excellence and aesthetical lightness that have been proved in real environments over several generations.
