UBER HAUS NOGUCHI TABLES IN MOTHIBISTAD

Japanese-American Isamu Noguchi was a fine artist who first gained fame as a sculptor, creating many iconic modern works located around the USA and the world. As his reputation grew in Modernist circles, he was enlisted by the famed Herman Miller to make a table. The design Noguchi   used became his famous “coffee table” – illustrating its creator’s firm belief that “everything is sculpture”. The table’s graceful blending of wood and glass in a truly organic form makes it as a much a piece of modern art as it is a piece of furniture. The table itself is the very nature of simplicity. Two smoothly shaped pieces of wood interlock to form a tripod that supports a thick slab of transparent glass. The resulting table is as beautiful as it is practical,. Like most Modernist pieces, it has been designed to last, and is equally at home with other furniture of its era as it is with the newest modern pieces. Ph. or e-mail:
