Guéridon
Designer: Jean Prouvé
A table with distinctive and convincing structural clarity, Guéridon was designed by Prouvé for the University of Paris. Manufactured from individual pieces of solid wood with a veneer finish, it gives the impression of both sturdiness and lightness. This table is well suited for both the domestic setting and for the furnishing of cafés and restaurants. |
Mesa Barcelona
Designer: Mies van der Rohe
Created by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for his 1929 Barcelona Pavilion, the Barcelona Table features the pure compositional structure that now epitomizes modern architecture. |
Trapèze
Designer: Jean Prouvé It would be difficult to find another table in 20th century furniture design that matches the striking image of Trapèze. Its name refers to the distinctive shape of the table's paired legs. Together with the thick, obliquely canted edges of the tabletop, they give visual emphasis to the construction's stability. Trapèze works well as a dining table, and also as a conference table or in sales areas. |
