Inca Console Table, Angelo Mangiarotti, Skipper, Italian Design, 1978
-
Description
Development on the previous "Eros" system, the “Incas" range features the same structural idea in a different material, extra strong stone (initially proposed in Pietra Serena sandstone with a sanded finish, also ideal for outdoor settings). It has square-shaped tops and truncated-pyramid-shaped legs with a trapezoidal section so that only the two sloping planes have to withstand stress and strain due to the weight of the top, while the vertical planes do not in any way support the structural system.
Angelo Mangiarotti, is one of the great names of 20th century Italian design, a committed, cultivated and brilliant designer, capable of embracing the ideals of the Modern Movement and going beyond them with his experimental and extremely original designs.
Like Mies van der Rohe, but with an engineering background; like Jean Prouvé, but with a freer and more creative spirit; like Constantin Brancusi, but in line with the construction technology of his time: this is Angelo Mangiarotti. - More Information
