‘RS4 Home x HEY’ captivates the moma design store

 

Rafael Rodríguez, CEO of game table company RS Barcelona, joined forces with Verònica Fuerte, founder of Hey Studio, to release a special edition of its football table dubbed ‘RS4 Home x HEY’. Boasting an eye-catching color palette, reminiscent of pop art culture, the design captivated the MoMA Design Store and is now part of the museum’s Exclusive selection. The duo has chosen to revamp the RS4 model for its unique combination of Iroko wood and steel, elegant features, and functional adaptability.

 

Now, ‘the RS4 Home comes with a manifesto in favor of real and authentic fun,’ writes Rodríguez. ‘It is a statement of intent to recover the good habit of playing active games with family and friends. Of keeping up the good habit of playing. Of cutting down on screen time. Of switching off the TV, game console and mobile device to connect with your people. Of putting aside the immediacy and giving ‘likes’ instead for the moments we experience. Of celebrating that we all together need no excuses, letting time go by without rushing.’

vibrant, uncoNventional, and without any restrictions 

 

While RS Barcelona (see more here) composed the design, Hey Studio (see more here) poured its creative branding approach into the football table, introducing a color combination that is powerful, eye-catching, pop, vibrant, unconventional, and without any restrictions. Ultimately, this chromatic freedom invites play and spreads Hey’s passion for color. ‘With this Special Edition, the RS4 Home x HEY foosball table is revealing itself with a bold artistic accent,’ notes Verònica Fuerte.

 

Now, thanks to its refreshing aesthetic, the ‘RS4 Home x HEY’ foosball table bears the MoMA Exclusive design signature. Being part of MoMA Exclusives, products must pass a selection process unlike any other: a set of 8 criteria that ensure every item is a good fit, aligned with MoMA’s vision of good design. The museum’s curatorial department then evaluates the product. Only items that make it through these two steps can successfully become part of the selection.
