 ABOUT the DESIGNER
Hayon’s work has straddled the design and art worlds in the last decade or so in a dazzling
display of virtuoso technique paired with a singular vision. His exuberant, joyful style is
always harnessed to a deep respect for craft and an instinctive appreciation for materiality.
Highly prolific, Hayon has worked with an incredible array of the world’s finest producers
of ceramics, glass, marble, wood, and many more to create decorative items, furniture and
lighting. His stunning interiors grace both hotels and museums with spaces that reflect the
elegant, expansive cosmos of Hayon‘s world. A true hybrid of artist and designer, he sees
his art career as an opportunity to play and experiment with no commercial restrictions
but brings that same artistic vision to his design work. True collaboration is something he
feels passionately about, believing that he should not impose himself upon the company but
instead create a new visual dialogue that uses the company’s expertise and traditions but
interprets them in his unique style.
TOTO with their world standard of excellence had been on Hayon’s radar for a long time,
their precisely engineered, state of the art systems represented a new kind of technical
challenge for Hayon, one that he responded to with a search for simplicity and purity of form.

TOTO by HAYON
“This whole project is about a search for simplicity in form, but sophistication in function, it
brings together the 2 sides of my design work where on one hand I can be decorative and
extremely visual but on the other I want to create something so streamlined in form that
it becomes a classic line that lasts and continues. Toto is a company that is the best in the
world when it comes to the technology and systems that make bathrooms work , they have
very sophisticated techniques that internally make things function so knowing that level of
expertise would be underlying the collection the challenge for me was the search for a pure
and simple exterior and shapes that would be adaptable to any kind of interior.
The inspiration really comes from the human body, sometimes the obvious thing to consider
turns out to be the right place to look, especially when you are designing something so
inexorably intertwined with bodily function. I thought about the curves of the human form,
of the lack of harsh angles in our bodies and decided that every element had to reflect the
human body in a way. Another important concept of these designs is the idea of ‘empty and
full ‘ the fullness version contains and reflects the form, the emptiness version focuses on the
taps and pipes and strips it back to focus on the functional elements, one way represents the
full bodied piece and the other is the pared back skeleton.
This is a supremely technical kind of design as function is everything, so things like taps I
concentrated on how it would feel in your hand, the ease of motion, the rounded shapes the
tactile quality was important, there are things we did technically that I am very pleased with,
for example the 360 degree movement on one piece, the way that the shower head extends
to reach a minimal depth , there are lot of technical things that were a first for me, as in the
past I have designed more accessory pieces rather than the functional elements.

The sinks are created with a signature shape, there is
a half circle that holds another one with a curved lip
that extends where they meet, if you took an aerial
point of view across the various pieces you would see
this recurring circular motif, the one circle enclosing
another. The taps have this almost helicopter like part
on top, the cross section grip has been used for a
long time but we pushed for a smoother, softer edge
as at the same time I wanted things to feel familiar
rather than novel. We also challenged Toto with our
desire for a different kind of color palette than they
had used before and new finishes. For the toilets the
curve was essential, you can find it too, in many of my
signature furniture designs, if you look at the Ro chair
for example, you will see that same curve incorporated
into it. It’s very sensual in a way but also highly functional.

The elegant shower head was another challenge we
set for Toto to make it the thinnest in the industry if
possible ,so they extended the length to gain the angle
needed for this absolutely minimalist height.The push
button flush is another element that Toto makes with
such precision that it goes almost unnoticed on the
wall, very spare, very small but it operates an internal
flushing system that is quite unique, it’s really clever and
supremely efficient.

So to sum up this project: It represents the marriage

of supreme technical precision with a smooth, sensual

design, introducing the elements that are personal to
me, adding in colors and curves but to bring them
in such a way that would create a timeless , elegant
collection that would look as good in a residential
project as it would in a large scale contract one, it’s
truly universal and international in outlook and design.
A collection that sustains it’s initial appeal over many
years is important to me . The empty and full concept
adapts to whatever place or materials you choose
to set it in or with. The collaboration for me is also
important on a broader scale as I have moved towards
large scale contract projects it’s essential that I also
work with objects that are easier to produce and
more accessible in that regard so all the technical
challenges are worthwhile for the long term aim of a
classic collection.”
