The meeting of two volumes achieves a perfect balance of one over the other.
More than a table, a sculpture, a perfect union of beauty and harmonious proportions. Presented at the 2015 Milan Furniture Fair and winner of different awards: Iconic Design Award 2015, Good Design Award 2016, Red Dot Award for the 2016 Product Design category.
Marc Krusin began his career in Italy where he worked at the heart of the Milanese design scene for more than 13 years. He became Piero Lissoni's right-hand-man and associate, leading all types of projects from product to interior design for clients of international reputation.
He now has his own practice in London and continues consult and design spaces and products for clients in several countries around the world. Among these are Knoll and Desalto for whom he created Clay and Mini-Clay, a range of tables which has become an iconic piece within the company’s catalogue.
In addition to designing, Marc has taught and lectured at universities in Europe and Australia and regularly speaks about his experience at events and conferences.
For nearly 30 years, Desalto has spread worldwide an idea of an aesthetically sophisticated product based on constant technical and technological research focused on greater functionality. Thirty years of activity make Desalto a young but also time-honoured brand.
A young spirit capable of combining iconic seating and complements, like graphic signs sketched in the air, with tables as adaptable as everyday life is. But also a story which began in 1990 when the four Orsenigo brothers – the heirs of a metalworking family company – envisaged a firm that would be more in step with the times and, from the very beginning, called on the cooperation of established or up-and- coming designers.
Excellent quality and production capacity are just two of Desalto's distinguishing characteristics which have made it one of the Italian companies considered ambassadors of Italian design throughout the world.
Desalto perfectly embodies some central values of the Made in Italy brand: a family of entrepreneurs and an area that represents, in the design scene, an unrepeatable system, from the idea to the market, and that maintains the product quality as a must.
Each design features the essence of the craftsmanship typical of Italy, and especially of the Brianza area. Desalto boasts an in-house and external production chain that is quality-controlled at every stage to ensure long- lasting value and beauty.
