Story
One of Morrison's very first projects
Cappellini says the One Legged Table is one of Jasper Morrison's very first projects, now revised almost forty years after its creation, and calls it a timeless object, valid today as well as at the moment of its conception.
Eliminating the superfluous
According to the page, the console fully expresses Morrison's design philosophy of eliminating the superfluous without trivialising the object.
