or Call to Order

In terms of mate­r­ial and form, Philipp Mainz­er’s Anton table for e15 exem­pli­fies an unwa­ver­ing commit­ment to the funda­men­tals. The oak table­top is crafted from eight solid wood planks, measur­ing a mere 20 millime­ters (3/4 inch) in thick­ness. Mean­while, the walnut table­top is composed of 11 planks. The legs, with a diam­e­ter of 30 millime­ters (1 1/8 inch), are detach­able and offer the choice of a powder-coated or brushed stain­less steel finish. This mini­mal­is­tic design under­scores the essence of simplic­ity and func­tion­al­ity.
