Story
An archaic wooden table
The Aion Table is a wooden table distilled to its most essential components, and its pure form and structure feel instantly familiar. Foster + Partners Industrial Design shaped a tabletop with a soft profile and gentle curves.
Tradition and technology
Craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology meet in the table: the Soft Edge is possible even with Fenix surfaces thanks to a patented technique, and a solid wood edge sets an elegant contrast.
