VITRA EM TABLE (American walnut / Black 200 cm - Solid oak oiled / Varnished steel)

At the beginning of the 1950s Prouvé designed the EM Table for the "Maison Tropique" project. With every single detail governed by its construction, the table follows the aesthetics of necessity. It illustrates the force vectors and static connections in a way that is otherwise only familiar in the context of civil engineering works.
