The Tribus Side Table from Bernhardt features a sculptural base formed from overlapping cast aluminum disks beneath a round top. Circular elements of varying sizes intersect at different planes, creating an open lattice-like structure that provides support. This construction method distributes weight across multiple connection points rather than concentrating it in traditional leg placements. Cast entirely in aluminum, the piece achieves seamless material flow from base to surface. The overlapping disks generate visual complexity that changes with viewing angle, while adjustable glides ensure stable contact with flooring surfaces.
