PA’ 1947

Archiproducts

$7,188

This solid wood console  table  was designed  in  1947  and used in  numerous  projects  including  Ico Parisi’s own home. The name of the reissue is also a tribute to Parisi’s nickname, PA’, that is  the  beginning of  his  surname together with an accent resulting in a diminutive form of  the  word  ‘father’  in  recognition  of  his  role in leading the modern movement in Como. The design idea was born from a few lines drawn on a sheet of paper: a straight  horizontal  line  and  two  oblique ones to define a harmonious and tense structure  with  almost  perfect proportions  and  an organic appearance. An image that could be  compared  to  a foal  ready  to spring  into  action  expressing the strength and tension of its tapered legs. Its rectangular top has four straight  slots  near the  ends  on  the  two  main  sides  into  which,  like  real joints, the tips of  the upper  arms  of  its  slender  and characteristic  divergent  Y-shaped  legs  are inserted  and fixed in pairs  by  means of a small  crossbar. Its balance  is  strengthened  thanks  to two oblique  solid  blocks turned to create an organic form which, diagonally joined to the small crossbar, perfectly fit under the top.The parts come together and dialogue in a fluid and continuous way to create a refined and balanced console table, immediately recognisable and perfect for all rooms of the home.Cassina has respected and enhanced the origins of this project by applying the company’s typical carpentry craftsmanship and industrial know-how, the same that Parisi had entrusted.Materials:- solid stained black ash wood or Canaletto walnut frame with a low gloss finish,  panelled  top with  solid  edges and veneered in the same wood essence as the frame;- metal parts in brass, painted matt black (only in combination with the stained black ash frame), brushed brass or brushed chrome.
