Story
An efficient table
Vitra's text says the legs and the slender frame follow the principle of an efficient use of materials, as much as necessary and as little as possible, which it credits with the table's graceful silhouette.
Archetypal details
The gently splayed legs and the slight overhang of the top are named by Vitra as reminiscent of archetypal tables, reinterpreted in a modern idiom.
