The Hay Passerelle collection is inspired by the uncluttered aesthetics of classic Shaker furniture. French designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec designed the Passerelle Desk with an updated aesthetic sharing the same simplicity and quality with a more contemporary appearance.
Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec were born in France in the 1970's, they studied at the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and at the École des Beaux-Arts in Cergy-Pontoise. The brothers are noted for their design work, which has been featured in publications and museums globally — and spans a wide range from tables and chairs to tableware, rugs, textile walls, office furniture, ceramics, art objects and urban projects.
They have a fantastic relationship with Hay in Denmark, as well as Vitra in Switzerland who let them create their unique, innovative designs. Without doubt the Boroullec's designs are set to become Design Classics of the future.
