The Noguchi Coffee Table was designed by Isamu Noguchi for Vitra.
Noguchi himself called the Coffee Table his best design, probably because the table is strongly reminiscent of the Biomorphic sculptures of bronze and marble that he made at the time and of which we find the typical shapes in this piece of furniture, a cross between sculpture and design. The heavy glass plate of the Coffee / Salon Table rests on two identical, perpendicular wooden elements.
