Initially designed to make use of surplus wooden shipping crates by Dutch architect and designer Gerrit Rietveld in 1934, the Crate Collection has been relaunched in a Rietveld Originals x HAY collaboration. Made with respect for the original design, the Crate Side Table shares the same precisely balanced proportions and transparent construction to minimise production costs and optimise the assembly process. Featuring a square tabletop and extra storage shelf, the table’s simplicity and spatial design mirrors the designer’s architectural style – providing functionality and comfort without absorbing space. Crafted in solid pine, with a water-based lacquered finish in different colour options, the Crate Side Table is suitable for a wealth of outdoor settings.
ModelShelf is an ongoing passion project to make better design tools accessible for everyone. If you find it useful, consider supporting it — every donation helps keep the library growing.
