Kalkeriet Contemporary is pleased to present the Creso table by Lella and Massimo Vignelli. A singular form with a monolith’s silhouette, the Creso experiments with a sole pedestal of support to transform a table into the kind of vigorous geometry that defined the eye of Lella and Massimo Vignelli. Returned to a more faithful rendering of Vignelli’s ideas, the new Creso explores a use of materials that underlines the potency of the design, with its round top and pillar base crafted formidably in travertine, or topped by glass and marble, braced by a base with various metallic finishes.
Travertine is a sedimentary and calcareous rock that is mainly distinguished by its unique compactness. In traditional form, it is a fairly uniform light beige stone, and the surface is puttied and polished to compensate for its porosity. The product consists of a mixture of carefully selected raw materials that are sintered at very high temperatures. The obtained slabs show off the splendid veining of marble in all its nuances and layering, which compares favourably with quarried marble.
Lella and Massimo Vignelli are a husband-and wife team. They studied in Venice, ltaly, and in 1960 established the Massimo and Lella Vignelli Office of Design and Architecture in Milan, working with graphics, products, furniture and interiors. In 1965 they founded Unimark lnternational Corporation, and, in 1971, Vignelli Associates, with an office in New York and liaison offices in Paris and Milan. The Vignellis’ work has been awarded numerous prizes and exhibited several times in sector publications, in the United States and abroad. Several of his works are included in the permanent collections of several museums.
