Traditional boardroom tables have often prioritized function over form due to sizing requirements and corporate office restraints. However, Stefan Diez is showcasing how style does not need to be compromised with his new Boa Table collection for Danish design house HAY.

Inspired by the traditional skillsets of Japanese bamboo artistry, the design of the Boa Table centers around a tubular frame. This frame can be flat-packed and easily constructed on-site thanks to a unique aluminum folding technique. The profiles are bent into place during assembly, increasing longevity and allowing for ease of transportation as businesses grow and offices change. The table's lightweight material choice, made from CIRCAL low carbon aluminum supplied by Norwegian manufacturer Hydro, also reduces its carbon footprint.

The table base is designed with circularity in mind, but what makes it truly unique is the customizable tabletop option. While linoleum, laminate, and wooden surfaces are available, users are encouraged to source a locally made tabletop, further enhancing the table's sustainable advantages.

According to Rolf Hay, Creative Director of HAY Furniture, the Boa Table revolutionizes the conference-table typology and fulfills all of their design values: originality, relevance, responsibility, simplicity, and beauty.

This striking design-led option is a welcome refresh from the cumbersome creations that have been found in corporate meeting rooms for decades. It offers a wide variety of powder-coated frame colors, moving away from the days of only dark woods or metals. For those working from home, it provides a multipurpose dining and workspace setting that bridges the gap between function and aesthetics. The table can be tailored to any interior style or color scheme, making it versatile and suitable for both home and office workspaces. It is also compact and portable.

The Boa Table base starts from £1278 and can be provided with cable storage and power supply accessories.
