A burnished brass-toned steel band at the base adds material contrast while providing protection. Equally suited to dining, meetings, or gatherings, the Tavolo a Dischi is a centerpiece that brings people together, fostering connection and conversation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFirst launched by Sormani in 1963, the Tavolo a Dischi was immediately lauded for its originality, and remained in production for the next two decades, becoming a much-admired feature of many design lovers’ homes around Europe, as well as a centerpiece in studies and conference rooms.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA single glance at the Tavolo a Dischi is enough to see that the table is a work of architecture as much as it is a piece of design. Formed from stacked concentric wooden discs, the Tavolo a Dischi is De Carli’s response to Eero Saarinen’s iconic Tulip Table – a design he loved. Over a dinner conversation with the pioneering furniture producer Luigi Sormani, De Carli envisaged a table of similar silhouette, defined by overlapping wooden discs of varying diameters around a central core.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout the designer : \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarlo De Carli was a central figure in Italian design during the mid-20th century.
