Overview
The B-Table Dining Table was designed by Marcel Gascoin in 1950. Its pivoting top changes from an 850 mm square into a circular surface with a 1160 mm diameter through a rotating mechanism.
Construction
GUBI offers the table in matt-lacquered oak or American walnut. The referenced oak item has matching wood for its base and top, with four tapered legs and the transformation mechanism contained beneath the surface.
Specifications
The official drawing labels the closed square at 850 × 850 mm, the open diameter at 1160 mm, and the overall height at 750 mm. Stored W and D describe the closed configuration shown in the main image.
Geschichte
Designed around movement
Gascoin’s B-Table is organised around a single transformation: the top rotates so the compact square becomes a larger circular dining surface. GUBI characterises this as a fluid movement that changes both function and expression.
A 1950 design
The official specification gives 1950 as the product’s design year and places it in the Gascoin collection. The mechanism is integrated beneath the top, allowing the table to retain its timber exterior in either position.
