Available in two sizes, the Laccio Table by Marcel Breuer stands as a paradigm of 20th-century design. Breuer’s use of tubular steel—which defines the crisp outline of these nesting tables—revolutionized furniture construction and inspired generations of designers.In 1925, Marcel Breuer was an apprentice at the Bauhaus when he reduced tables and chairs to their elemental lines and forever altered the future of furniture design. He was inspired to work with tubular steel after hearing the material is “bent like macaroni” to make bicycle frames. “I was very much engaged in the transparency of the form,” said Breuer, who, upon recognizing the potential of this lightweight, sturdy, malleable material, knew he could create the furniture he envisioned.
