Born in 1932, acclaimed Finnish designer Eero Aarnio changed the face of industrial design through his groundbreaking use of plastic. The Screw Table takes a simple household object that is usually hidden and celebrates its form by magnifying it many times over to create a functional piece of furniture. Available in two heights, the Screw Table adds a striking accent to a wide range of settings.
Design Year: 1991
The Design:
- Aarnio's vivid imagination led him to design a table that challenged conventional assumptions about proportions, as he explained: "I have always studied my surroundings, the nature, buildings, objects, out of scale, in which case big can be small and visa versa.
With this in mind a small metal screw serves the function of a table: a spiral part is a thin table leg and the head is the broadening table top. It is only a question of scaling. Naturally the same function and shape can be realized simplified but the outcome is very ordinary.
The shape of the screw gives the product added value and it gets your imagination and creativity going. You are an inch tall in the land of giants, where even the screws are almost your size."
-
The Screw Table is available in two heights to accommodate the needs of various settings. The low height Screw Table make an excellent side table or end table wherever an eye-catching highlight is desired. The tall height Screw Table, perfectly sized at bar hight, makes an excellent cafe or pub table.
- Available in five glossy colors, the Screw Table is a true standout wherever it is placed. It is a meticulously designed, completely functional sculpture that at the same time features a wry sense of humor.
