“When the client first approached me, they had a simple yet profound request: to create a table where everyone could gather. A place that could expand not only in size, but in spirit, welcoming family, friends, stories, and shared moments. From this idea, La Famiglia was born, taking its name from the Italian word for "family" - a celebration of togetherness around a single table..”
My inspiration
Visual rhythm
The table is made from European Oak, its basic size is 400cm x 120cm, only 3.2cm thick.
The extensions 60cm and 100cm are easily connected so the table has unlimited extendable length.
The wood veins are along the length of the veneer, I’ve designed a mosaic from the veneer positioned in different angles on the surface so it ‘breaks’ down the long, repetitive horizontal lines created by the natural wood veins. By that, an interesting texture is created.
