Albers Occasional table

Overview

Marie-Aurore Stiker-Métral designed the Albers occasional table for Ligne Roset as part of a modular set of low tables, built on geometry, proportions and modularity. Each module sets one square inside another, after the painter Josef Albers.

Construction

The top and base are smoked tinted tempered glass, the sides are amber glass and the four legs are brass. Two or four modules can be assembled into occasional tables of variable geometry, and several tables can be placed side by side in different configurations.

Specifications

Overall size: 45 x 45 x 36.9 cm (W x D x H). Weight: 20 kg.

A square within a square

Albers is a set of modular low tables that works with geometry, proportions and modularity. Each module sets one square inside another, a reference to Josef Albers, painter and Bauhaus art teacher (1923-1933), and his Homage to the Square series.

Modules that combine

Assembling 2 or 4 modules gives occasional tables with variable geometry and multiple combinations. Several tables can also be composed side by side, creating different configurations according to needs and space.
