The Cotone family has acquired new members to go with the upholstered armchair launched in 2017. These are a slim version of the same, called, not surprisingly, Cotone Slim, as well as a table and chair, the latter having a solid wood seat and back. The products in this collection all feature an extruded aluminium frame characterized by sophisticated industrial details. Thanks to these, the pieces can be mixed and matched, according to one’s tastes and requirements. The table, which has a simple yet eye-catching design, comes in four rectangular and one square size, the frame being available in the same colors as the chairs. Distinctive and immediately recognizable, the aluminium frame, both light and strong, conjures an elegant contrast with the natural materials used for the top, and well as with the legs, whose slender lines allow several people to sit around the table in comfort. The new sizes complement, and integrate, the wide range of tables currently belonging to the Cassina catalogue.

About Designer
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec	Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, born 1971 and 1976, respectively, in Quimper, France, studied at the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and at the École des Beaux-Arts in Cergy-Pontoise. Ronan began independent design work immediately after completing his studies, while his brother, who was still in school, assisted him. Since 1999 both brothers have worked together as joint partners in their own Paris-based design studio. Their work ranges from small utilitarian objects to architectural projects. In addition to the design of domestic and office furniture, vases, porcelain dishware, jewellery and diverse home accessories, a primary focus of their work is the design and organisation of interior space. One of their most unconventional designs, Algue (2004), was created in this context. The collaboration between the Bouroullec brothers and Vitra began with the office furniture system Joyn, which was developed between 2000 and 2002 and continues to be expanded and refined. Along with Jasper Morrison, Hella Jongerius, and Antonio Citterio, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec have made major contributions to the steadily growing Vitra Home Collection.
