WEEKDAY COLLECTION DESIGN BY HANNES & FRITZ, 2023 | First designed as an impromptu solution to a lack of seating at a dinner party, designers Hannes & Fritz refined their idea to create Weekday – a collection of outdoor benches and tables for HAY. Retaining the original idea of bringing people together, Weekday’s solid, robust presence and softly rounded joints convey a sense of warmth and familiarity that invites shared dining and a social atmosphere. Featuring the same construction as the classic picnic table and bench, Weekday is made in strong, durable pine planks that will patinate beautifully and last for many years to come. Weekday’s strong yet universally appealing character combined with its multiple size options and water-based, weather-resistant surface treatment makes it suitable for outside use in a wide range of settings, from cafés and public parks to private or shared gardens. Made in solid pine in different finishes and colour options, with the possibility to supplement benches with seat cushions in selected textiles for extra comfort.
