Brutalist-inspired sculptural console

Pilotis, designed by Rodolfo Dordoni, is a console table that adds character to the space it inhabits with the sculptural energy of its Brutalist-inspired design. Its strong personality gives it expressive freedom.

Steel half-cylinder and ash volume

A cylindrical polished steel base is grafted into a hollow half-cylinder with the same finish, set horizontally. The half-cylinder houses a brushed Licorice lacquered ash volume that serves as the top, and this detail is clearly visible from the side elevation, where the materiality of the wood stands out.
