A versatile design for hospitality, food service and shared spaces

The design of JAY stands out for its versatility, making it suitable for multiple contexts. Zakaria Khalfaoui’s approach addresses the needs of dynamic environments—from cafés to corporate lounges, from modern canteens to coworking areas—while preserving a strong, recognizable identity. Designed for restaurant and break areas, JAY provides an optimal balance of support, comfort and long-lasting resistance, even in high-traffic contract settings.

Chairs for public spaces must comply with strict quality, safety and maintenance standards. JAY fully meets these requirements thanks to sturdy construction, selected materials and a design attentive to durability. The use of certified wood from responsibly managed forests adds not only aesthetic value but also technical reliability, ensuring stability and integrity over time.

Sitlosophy also offers extensive informational material for designers, including technical specifications, finish options, dimensional schemes and other tools useful to integrate JAY into contract projects. This allows architects and interior designers to easily include the chair in moodboards, plans, BIM models and digital simulations.

The soft curves and the sculptural “J” shape, created through precise woodworking, give the chair an organic character suitable for natural, welcoming and contemporary interiors. The fluid transitions between components and the cushioned backrest make JAY comfortable even during extended sitting.

More than just a chair, JAY contributes to defining atmospheres: it harmonizes with minimalist interiors, social areas, hospitality environments and contemporary design schemes. Every detail—from the curvature of the wood to the selection of fabrics—expresses a premium quality that enhances the surrounding space.

Functionality, sustainability and tools for easy project integration

Beyond aesthetics, JAY provides concrete functional advantages essential for contract environments. The visible wooden structure, made from high-quality certified essences, ensures strength and durability while supporting low-impact design choices. Its FSC Certification (wood from responsibly managed forests) is a key element for architects and designers developing projects with a focus on environmental responsibility.

Sitlosophy supports the design process with complete informational material for designers, including data sheets, digital files, finishes and application guidelines. This makes it easy to integrate JAY into public-space layouts, whether for hospitality, catering or workplace environments. Customizable finishes and upholstery options further expand design possibilities, allowing seamless coordination with brand identity or overall interior palettes.

Its comfortable seating experience and visual lightness make JAY ideal for restaurant and break areas, where functionality and aesthetics must work together. The chair’s refined natural look enriches meeting areas, dining rooms, informal lounges and hybrid spaces with a welcoming and distinctive appeal.

Finally, the precision of Italian craftsmanship is evident in every detail: from the carefully shaped wooden curves to the meticulously upholstered elements designed to maintain comfort over time. JAY is built to last, combining iconic design, sustainability and contract-grade performance.
