Designed by John Astbury
Named after the mythical Titan condemned to hold up the heavens on his shoulders, the solid legs of the Atlas coffee table stand strongly as support for the spacious tabletop.

There are references to porticoes and colonnades, but Atlas builds mainly on the archetypal post-and-lintel construction. Combined with simple geometry, the circle and the square, it is the primary archetypes that together create the table?s character and composition.

Straight lines have been softened, allowing the timber seat and back to appear as if floating above the thin steel frame. What remains are […]
