Description
Overview
Block Outdoor pairs a solid natural-teak base with a rectangular top whose softened edges evoke a smooth pebble. The representative tall size measures 55 x 40 x 45 cm.
Top options
The 12 mm top is available in fine-grain brushed Pietra del Cardoso or White glossy exterior-lacquered HPL. A black structural HPL underpanel supports the upper surface.
Base
Kiln-dried solid teak is CNC-machined and joined with finger joints and dowels. Adjustable feet and black ribbed-rubber glides complete the construction.
Story
Brutalist reference
Rodolfo Dordoni gives Block Outdoor a solid architectural base inspired by Brutalist forms. Depending on the viewpoint, the teak support reads as an L or an inverted T.
Two proportions
The family includes a low 100 x 50 x 40 cm table and the selected compact 55 x 40 x 45 cm version. Both are documented with either stone or white lacquered tops.
