A New Waiting Experience by Bürotime That Encourages Social Interaction: HEY!
Bürotime’s new seating series HEY! redefines the conventional concept of waiting areas in offices and shared spaces. Drawing attention with the energy embedded in its name, HEY! transforms waiting zones from mere transitional areas into lively meeting points that enhance the social rhythm of a space.
A Socially Driven Design Approach
Designed by Ece Yalım Design Studio, HEY! establishes an immediate connection through the friendly exclamation mark in its name. This strong association reflects the core idea behind the design: a seating experience that naturally brings people together and encourages conversation and interaction. More than just a seat, HEY! stands out as a confident design statement that shapes the character of its environment.
Relaxed, Youthful and Self-Assured
The form of HEY! creates a soft, embracing presence that invites users in. Resembling a generously shaped cushion, the design offers a deliberately relaxed and flexible appearance despite its craftsmanship-driven stitching details. Inspired by the free-spirited and self-confident attitude of the new generation, HEY! adds an energetic and contemporary atmosphere to any space.
Modular Structure, Fluid Solutions
Comprising a two-seat waiting unit, linear waiting module and angled waiting module, the HEY! series adapts to diverse spatial needs through its modular configuration. The ability to sequentially combine straight and angled modules allows for customized layouts and fluid seating arrangements. This structure positions HEY! as both a functional solution and a strong design element.
A Strong Presence in Contemporary Spaces
From office common areas and hotel lobbies to guest waiting zones and social spaces, HEY! fits seamlessly into a wide range of environments. Reflecting Bürotime’s contemporary design approach, this new seating series creates an aesthetic focal point while reinforcing social interaction and strengthening the identity of modern interiors.
