Rows Table

Overview

The Rows tables by Patricia Urquiola set the solidity of the structure against the graphic effect of the surfaces and the linearity of the top, which is available in wood, back-painted glass or marble. The Diagonal table carries code RW04FQ.

Construction

The Diagonal base is oak-veneered MDF with milled grooves. The top comes in oak-veneered MDF, back-painted glass or marble, and the glass and marble tops sit on a black-painted MDF sub-top.

Vertical and Diagonal

Urquiola conveys the expressivity of form in two rectangular tables. The Vertical table is designed with a nod to classical architecture and brings to mind the fluting of a column. The sculptural influence is more evident in Diagonal, whose perpendicular geometry and oblique lines add more movement to the structure.

Still lifes behind the milled bases

The workmanship on the table bases, at once formal and decorative, is inspired by the still lifes of Amédée Ozenfant, the French writer and painter who founded the Purist movement in 1918. The curved milled edge running the length of the surface comes from the same nature morte reference.
