Manifesto Custom Occasional/Coffee Table, AS IS (0GD006)

Manifesto custom occasional/coffee table.

By definition “manifesto” means a statement of intent. Many designers and architects in the late 18th century and early 20th century wrote their design manifesto. Manifesto's design roots are with those designers that were embracing and creating what would become known as modern design. It had rules regarding aesthetics as well as social, political, technical and economic goals. Their approach to design starts here and to them true “modern” is defined by this period. They make a distinction between the terms “modern” and “contemporary”. Contemporary design can be a catch-all, of the moment, no rules, but simply new. Modern is spare, not ornamental, elegant, by necessity about proportion and material. Great modern is difficult to achieve because by definition it works with the least amount to achieve the design goal.

This beautiful coffee table features a glass top and uniquely shaped base. The base - made of macassar ebony - stems from a small square stand that tapers up into four legs. These legs create an x-shape that supports the corners of this piece. Elegant and modern, this custom coffee table is the perfect way to class up a room.
