Pietra, Side Table
Design by GamFratesiContinuing GamFratesi’s material exploration of travertine that began with the Epic and Doric Tables, the Pietra Side Tables celebrate the mesmerizing patterns found in the surface of the stone. Available in two sizes and two colors, Lively Sepia and Neutral White Travertine.
The tables are deceptively lightweight, each constructed by hand from six pieces but resembling solid blocks. A raised lip around the gently curving edge of the tabletop creates a useful tray-like surface, ideal for displaying objects or placing a glass securely. Carefully cut, fitted, and finished, the curved edges and corners exemplify the extraordinary level of craftsmanship behind the table, and imbue the stone with a sense of softness.
Gamfratesi
GamFratesi has been working with GUBI since the inception of their studio and the development of the Beetle Chair. With their own dual heritage, Italien Enrico Fratesi and Danish Stine Gam share GUBI's ability to synthesize seemingly opposing ideas - the classic and the contemporary, the intellectual and the sensual, the understated and the expressive, the manufactured and the unique. These juxtapositions, as well as the boldness and curiosity that drives their desire to find inspiration in unfamiliar territory, are epitomized in the Beetle.
