Torpedo (dining table)

The “Torpedo” dining table is a manifestation of contemporary art applied to furniture, where the precision of technology meets the innate beauty of natural materials. Here I present a detailed description:

Base:
The base of this table is made from plywood slaps. The plywood, renowned for its multiple layers, gives the table unmatched strength and stability. Thanks to CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology, the slaps have been cut with millimeter precision to form a base that, although complex in design, feels cohesive and fluid. This technique allows you to give the wood shapes and contours that would be difficult to achieve by hand. The design is subtly reminiscent of a torpedo, with streamlined lines and a sense of movement, even when the table is at rest.

Stop:
The table top is made of 3/4 inch glass, ensuring durability and strength. This thickness gives it substantial weight and presence, but its transparency allows the sculptural base beneath to be fully appreciated. The edges of the glass have been meticulously polished to provide a smooth, safe finish, and its smooth surface makes cleaning simple and effective.

Functionality and Aesthetics:
The “Torpedo” table is the type of piece that becomes the focal point of any dining room. Its base, with the distinctive character of plywood and the almost infinite possibilities offered by CNC technology, creates a visual play of shadows and layers that is both intriguing and aesthetic. At the same time, the solid and sleek glass top contrasts and complements the base, offering a balance between modern and organic.

In short, the “Torpedo” dining table is a masterpiece of contemporary design, combining technological precision with the beauty and versatility of natural materials. It’s a style statement, ideal for those who value innovation without sacrificing functionality.
