Story

Developed around changing layouts

The designers’ work on training and conference spaces led to a system that could move between clusters, circular discussions and front-facing presentations.

Shapes within one system

Vitra supplies square, rectangular, trapezoidal and round tops. The stored 1500 × 750 mm rectangular table is one documented version rather than a maximum configuration.
