Design Rodolfo Dordoni Boboli Table For Cassina

Design Rodolfo Dordoni Boboli Table For CassinaA tribute by Rodolfo Dordoni to the legendary gardens in Florence, Boboli is a symbol of culture and historic beauty visible in the fluid lines of a table with an extremely bold, elegant design. The base of the Boboli table is dramatic and sculptural; here is where its complex structural virtuosity is emphasized by the spiral uprights reminiscent of the trained vertical growth of plants in classic Italian gardens. The curves of the aluminum base, coordinated with the marble top, lacquered glass or in canaletto walnut, lend a fascinating sculptural stylistic effect, aligning sobriety and fantasy in a genuine challenge to the limits of Nature and matter. The Boboli side tables, part of the same collection crafted by the designer, are perfectly at home in the living room.TOPBack-lacquered extra-clear tempered glass, marble.BASESheet steel and extruded aluminum alloy.UNDER-TOPIn matt black lacquered MDF.The Boboli table is characterised by its geometrically ordered lines, where the structural challenge facing Cassina was to ensure the stability of the slim-line twisted uprights that form the base. These uprights, both load- bearing and decorative, pay homage to the canons of the classical Italian garden, where plants were often trained vertically. The sinuous form of these aluminium legs confer a sculptural look to the design, where rigour and imagination come together to challenge the limits and the very nature of the material from which they are made. After several updates and revisitations, Cassina presented the latest iteration of the Boboli table in 2016, further improving its stability and resistance by fixing the table-top to the base. Exquisitely constructed, the Boboli collection of tables has been further enhanced with new painted aluminium finishes in matte black, dark gold chrome, gunmetal grey, mud.Important information regarding images of products:Please note that some of the images show other colors and variations of the model, these images are only to present interior design proposals.
