6 Table tube d’avion, Outdoor
- Description
- Designer Bio
The concept of the iconic Table tube d’avion
lies in the distinction between the support piece and the piece being
supported; in other words, between the base and the top.
The independence of the two parts of this table
is highlighted by the four intermediate supports that serve both as level
adjusters and as spacers between the bulk of the support and the slender lines
of the top.
Made for outdoor settings, this outdoor table
has a stainless-steel structure with a textured powder-coated finish designed
for outdoor use, it comes in several colors.

Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand |
In 1922, Le Corbusier began working in the new rue de
Sèvres, Paris, atelier with his cousin Pierre Jeanneret with whom he shared
research projects and design criteria in a profound and life-long professional
relationship. In October 1927, the pair decided to draw on the
contribution of a young architect who had already begun to establish a
reputation on the architectural scene of the time: Charlotte Perriand. Their collaboration lasted through to 1937 and was
extremely fruitful, especially in the field of furniture design. The
partnership was highly significant, both in terms of the cultural weight of
their achievements and their professional successes. It was together with Charlotte Perriand that the pair
tackled the innovative project for “l’équipement d'intérieur de
l’habitation”. The resulting designs were of great intellectual value
and considerable commercial success. Thanks to Cassina’s ongoing production, there is
continued interest in the conceptual contents of the work and the level of
quality attained.
Due to these characteristics, each item in the
collection is eagerly awaited. |
