A city, or “Polis” in ancient Greek — intersecting volumes and surfaces that define usable spaces. The Polis tables draw from American classics like Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House: a series of stacked surfaces with deep overhangs, and two partially hidden structural pillars at the center to keep them perfectly grounded. Just as in many modern furniture pieces from the 1920s — Wright himself, but also Werner Blaser and Charles Rennie Mackintosh — there is a hint of traditional Japanese woodcraft: clean lines, sophisticated joinery, understated yet precious wood finishes. The table top and shelf feature solid edge bandings to prevent laminate peel-off in case the edges get hit.
