Soffio console
From a formal standpoint this is an extremely architectonic table. The flat metal leg is the distinctive design feature. With its particular “boomerang” form it generates an image that makes a clean break with the usual orthogonal arrangement of top and structure, inserting a forceful feature that generates identity, an almost airborne sense of poise, even with large measurements. SOFFIO has a metal base and a top in solid wood or marble. Solid and light at the same time, it plays with the clean form of the structure that supports the overhanging top.

SOFFIO generates a family of products, also including smaller tables and consoles.
