Hans Bølling’s iconic Tray Table is now available in a special limited edition of only 500 pieces, made in Designmuseum Danmark’s signature colour.

In 1963, Danish architect Hans Bølling designed the simple, elegant and mobile table, which was easy to handle. Since then, it has become a symbol of the playful functionalism of the golden Danish Modern era – and a design idea that is still relevant today. A Danish classic.

The hand-selected indigo blue is a recurrent colour throughout the museum. First displayed in the historic sandstone portal at the front door that dated from 1757, its unique hue has continued to be a central part of the museum’s identity and interior ever since.

Award-winning architects OEO Studio renovated and refurbished the museum in 2022 to include the special blue tray table as a permanent part of the interior of the Danish design destination, including featuring it in the café, library and lounge areas.

As a vital part of Danish modernist design heritage, the tray table has only grown in popularity since its origin in 1963. With its simplicity, ease of use and sculptural qualities, it continues to be relevant to changing times and appeal across new generations.

Every Tray Table is mounted with a brass plate that contains Hans Bølling’s signature and has the individual piece number engraved as a certificate of authenticity. It is discretely placed on the inside of the stretcher of the Tray Table.
