Story
Born for the office
Kartell's page describes Max as a study table born for the office. Its gentle hourglass shape lets it sit side by side with tables of the same type and with other office furnishings, and it can stand alone as a single workstation or with companion pieces to create work islands for open office spaces.
Light and mobile
The page says the match-up combinations are easy and quick thanks to the table's lightness and mobility, as the leg structures demonstrate. Three metal tubes in chromed steel join at the base to form castors or feet, and the castors are equipped with auto-lock brakes for stability.
