The design concept of PAPILIO harmonizes perfectly with the natural features of the material creating a harmonious link between organic and geo- metrical forms. A Tree Trunk Table from two mirrored boards with a narrow gap in between. These reflect the natural grain of the tree and expose its remarkable annual rings and structures. The synthesis with the fragile, slanting legs gives an exclusive, modern look to the table. The symbiosis between human, nature and room creates true fee- lings in people. The design concept convinced German Design Council expert jury for ICONIC AWARDS 2016 Label: Interior Innovation – Winner and GERMAN DESIGN AWARD SPECIAL 2017.
From the former gigantic oak tree trunk vitamin design presents a challenge with great attention to detail, transforming the material in to artwork with the practical use. Only the particularly gentle and controlled drying process can guarantee the long life of the table. The great art and a valuable unique piece for the office and home.
