Inspired by truss structures in engineering, the First Table is a visual conundrum. Bold and exciting to the eye, yet functional and sure-footed in use, it is a statement piece with a distinct identity. Its light silhouette and simple material allow it to blend easily into any interior. The seemingly complex construction is in fact very easy and logical to assemble.
