Crate Collection

Design by Gerrit Rietveld,

relaunched by Rietveld

Originals x HAY

The history of the original Crate Collection dates back to

1934, when the renowned Dutch architect and designer

wanted to create modern and functional furniture from

surplus wooden crates.

Today’s Crate Collection shares the same aesthetic strength

and precisely balanced proportions, with its simplicity

and spatial design mirroring the designer’s harmonious

architectural sense. Comprising a lounge chair, dining

chair, low table, and side table, the collection’s solid pine

construction with water-based coating makes it suitable

for outdoor environments, from cafés and public spaces

to private or shared gardens.
