Story
An organic shape beside other furniture
Zanotta's page says the shape of Tod stretches up to be useful without taking visual or physical space, and that its organic quality links the floor with the top surface.
Designed for company
According to Zanotta, the organic quality contrasts with the usual rectangular forms of the furnishing elements the table sits beside, and the table is designed understanding it may never exist alone, but always next to something else.
