Story
An Unlikely Paradox
At first glance Fabio Novembre's Org seems a paradox: the top appears to rest on elements that hang from above, like tendrils. Cappellini explains that the internal solidity is hidden from view.
Rope Legs
The careful placement of flexible polypropylene rope legs amidst rigid legs with a steel core and rope exterior gives the table its look. The round top and the satined stainless steel end caps complete the design, which is also made as a console.
