This Metaform design is a perfect example. The KW1, designed by Hank Kwint in the 1980s, plays with lines, planes, and space. Two slender L-shaped metal profiles intersect like a graphic drawing in the air. The frame subtly sinks into a solid block leg, making the whole thing appear almost to float. The central leg is made of wood and covered in matte black Formica. Sleek, understated, and precisely balanced with the black powder-coated steel. On top lies the original, heavy, 2 cm thick glass top with a facet-cut edge. The clear glass allows the sculptural base to remain visible at all times. from every angle, you see a new interplay of lines. Thanks to its minimalist character, this table blends effortlessly.
