Introducing the latest Explorer table, with the same clean lines and bold hues, now in a new, lower model. For his own home, for many years, Hayon has designed pieces of furniture with simple, organic forms—in anticipation of children running around their edges, also just because they are elegant and beautiful. The latest table in the Explorer series uses the same clean curves and playful colours as its predecessors, now in a lower version, a perfect addition to any living space. Jaime Hayon boasts one of the most glittering careers in contemporary design. He forged his identity as a designer at Benetton’s Fabrica communications research centre, near Treviso, where he worked under Oliviero Toscani, first arriving in 1997. Soon after he was put in charge of the design department. He first worked with BD on the Mail Me project while at Fabrica, and in 2004, Hayon branched out on his own. The Explorer series comes straight from Hayon’s own cosmos —his drawings—into light-hearted but elegant objects, finished in playful, beautiful glosses. This award-winning collection also includes a dining table, a number of side tables, and multiple vases, coming in an ever-expanding range of sizes and colour combinations. BD Barcelona In 1972, a group of young architects and designers from Barcelona started BD. Our aim was to produce and market furniture and objects for our own projects, with complete creative freedom and design criteria—both in shape and in function—that was different from the sector norm. In 1972, a group of young architects and designers from Barcelona started BD. Our aim was to produce and market furniture and objects for our own projects, with complete creative freedom and design criteria—both in shape and in function—that was different from the sector norm. We began coming up with designs, inspired by our contemporaries, from Ettore Sottsass in Italy to Álvaro Siza Viera in Portugal. Here in Spain, we were supported by those seeking something other than what was on the market at the time. These early pieces helped bring international recognition to the country’s design scene, and many of them still exist today. The BD brand has been enriched by all the designs we’ve produced. The result is a sum of many things—memory, tradition, and respect for the classics, as well as talent, innovation, a sense of humour, and a lot of imagination.
