Coffee tables from Cassina, Designed by Charlotte Perriand

Product description

This low table, with its audacious sculptural look, was designed by Charlotte Perriand on the occasion of the retrospective exhibition of her works held at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris in 1985. Originally intended as a one-off, this was among Perriand’s last works. When it joined the Cassina portfolio, Accordo was only available in a black lacquer finish. Today, as fresh-looking as it was when first launched, the colour options include China red and marron glacé. Placing several of these tables together creates highly impactful geometric compositions that play on their proportions to conjure a unique sense of suspension. These clean-cut and visually dynamic shapes can fulfil a number of interpretations in grand style, enabling the object itself to become a centre of attraction.

Concept

Created by Charlotte Perriand in 1985 as a single piece for the retrospective exhibition that the Musée des Arts-Décoratifs dedicated to her career, this table’s simplicity of form is presented in close relation to the design of the wool rug that accompanies it. The unique characteristics provided by the permutation of compositional elements is based on a geometric system of combinations that further enhances the clean-honed, primary forms of the table, which appears to be suspended: a sculptural, visually dynamic form, the fulcrum and source of an atmospheric space that invites convivial enjoyment.
