Trio Low Center Table Low Center Table

Trio Low Center Table Low center table is an innovative furniture design that exemplifies the intersection of industrial aesthetics and functional elegance. Created by designer Marc Scimé, this sophisticated piece features a distinctive three-legged configuration crafted from hard-anodized 6061 aluminum alloy, measuring 1067mm in diameter with a height of 356mm. The design's astringent form language draws inspiration from industrial metal objects, incorporating unique joinery features more commonly associated with woodworking techniques, particularly evident in its halving lap joints where the legs meet the frame perimeter. The table's structural integrity is enhanced by three broad corrugated legs that create compelling visual rhythm through vertical patterns of light and shadow on the deep gray anodized finish. The piece demonstrates exceptional attention to detail, featuring S-shaped gesture joints and a 9.5mm thick inset glass top, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. The three-legged design serves a practical purpose beyond aesthetics, providing stable footing on uneven surfaces while incorporating subtle corrugations and crenelations that facilitate safe handling of the glass top. This remarkable fusion of form and function earned the design a Silver A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category, recognizing its contribution to innovative furniture design through its sophisticated manufacturing process, which combines CNC milling, aerospace-grade epoxy bonding, and precision metalwork. The table's design philosophy adheres to the principle of Shibui, emphasizing functional elegance while maintaining manufacturing feasibility for production.
