Tense Curve
Coffee tables from MDF Italia, Designed by Piergiorgio Cazzaniga, Michele Cazzaniga
Product description
Tense Curve is an icon of the MDF Italia collection, a project which develops and evolves in terms of its own tensity.
Tense Curve is available in 1 height, H73 cm, and 6 sizes.
Frame and tops
35x35 mm steel legs with internal structural tie-rod. The 35 mm thick tabletop is a load-bearing composite board built with an internal frame consisting of either aluminium profiles and polystyrene filler. The important technological innovation it incorporates, combined with the tensioning capacity of the components makes it possible to build tabletops in large sizes which remain perfectly flat and also extremely light.
Monochromatic version
matt white, made of acrylic resin and rock minerals. Tabletop, edges and legs covered with a 3 mm thick sheet of resin.
Mono-material version
Natural oak wood, with transparent acrylic finish. Top, edges and legs coated by 3 mm thick solid wood.
Carbone, created in solid natural oak wood, thickness 3 mm, subjected to surface acid etching treatment applied by using natural acids without chemical additives.
This innovative process inspired by alchemists of the past allows to alter the organic properties of wood. The reaction of tannins contained in wood generates natural “burning” that endows the surface with a unique carbonised effect. Contact with the natural acid enhances sensitive wood with the shade and colours of warm intense black, rich in natural gradations that are not uniform but unique. The natural surface features a
special extensive matt finish that is rough and worn, a genuine visual and tactile experience for the user. Top, edges and legs covered with a sheet of material in a thickness of about 3 mm. Reconstructed stone is obtained from a blend of mineral powders that have been micronized and mixed with liquid acrylic and water-based products, giving it a material essence. The finishes are applied manually with a palette knife over the entire surface of the table, creating a one-of-a-kind texture that characterises each and every product, both to the eye and to the touch.
After application, a maturation process at room temperature is required; the material is subsequently protected with a water- based nanotechnological finish that makes the table sturdy and easy to clean.
Top, edges and legs covered with the application of a thickness of about 1.5 mm of material.
Concept
