It needs to "click"
At Dutch manufactory Arco almost everything revolves around tables. What makes the new model, called “Trestle”, so special? Jorre van Ast, designer and MD of the family-owned company, explains – in interview with Uta Abendroth.
An unconventional table that combines new technology with ingenious use of materials. 2 and 2.5mm sheet steel with a powder-coating finish forms the basis of the table. The top can also be finished with a layer of 2.5mm semi-solid wood. Together with the
option of legs in solid wood, this creates a total of 4 possible combinations. The table has an industrial feel yet it also has the refined craftsmanship and elegant finish traditionally associated with Arco. The powder coating and the layer of semi-soli
d wood both make the table extremely practical for daily use and suitable for both residential and business environments.
