Joaquim Low Tables

The Joaquim low tables, created by Giorgio Bonaguro for Tacchini, were designed to salvage off-cuts, fully embrac­ing the prin­ci­ples of upcy­cling and envi­ron­men­tal sustain­abil­ity. They take inspi­ra­tion from the soft­ness of Brazil­ian furni­ture design between the 40s and 60s in the modernist archi­tec­ture of Niemeyer, Costa, Vilanova Artigas, and Bo Bardi.

The linear, geomet­ric shapes are a homage to the straight­for­ward, elegant lines of Joaquim Tenreiro, consid­ered one of the fathers of modern trop­i­cal design. The tables feature a metal frame with tops and bases in Patag­o­nia or Elegant Brown.
