Kettal
Roll Side Table, designed by Patricia Urquiola, is an alluring side table. Using a unique intervention of conventional upholstery, Kettal converts an average backrest into two independent ‘wraps’ connected by colorful straps. These straps are connected to the aluminium structure using two pins, allowing our clients to remove them during the wintertime easily. The seat cushion is supported by a semi-transparent micro fabric, allowing the aluminum frames to support the protagonist of our chairs: the cushion. The design of side tables could be considered postmodernist, given its basic yet unexpected forms. The tables are built following a graphic pattern that appears in all of the collection’s pieces, a pattern in which various materials - metals, concrete, and wood - are joined together in unique and unusual ways. The table tops are made up of different materials such as aluminium, Glaze, teak wood, or marble, while the base, resting on architectonic concrete, is made of intentionally oversized aluminium.

Ringer Dining Table, designed by Michael Anastassiades, is a glamorous and engaging dining table with a square base. The Ringer Collection is the first collaboration between Kettal and Michael Anastassiades, and was conceived as a minimal approach to Café dining furniture. The title references the traditional Game of Horseshoes and links to the gesture of the armrest sitting on top of the legs. Michael made use of Kettal’s expertise in aluminum fabrication to create a robust collection that is still easy to move and rearrange. The focus is an ArmTable with a singular arm and back element. There is a slight flaring on the opening of the armrest as a subtle invitation to occupy the seat, echoing the traditional Chinese Horseshoe Back Table. The challenge has been to make the individual elements that compose the Table appears as if they touch without visible joints yet provide sufficient structural support.

Teak Dining Table, designed by Mario Bellini, is a beautiful 8 leg dining table for 12 guests. Mario took his inspiration from a basic elemental structure in architecture. His design emulated the colonnade of classical architecture, in which a sequence of columns supports a portico, in this case a table top. The base is a visually closed volume, despite being materially open. When seen from a different viewpoint, perception changes completely, as the columns no longer overlap and the space appears empty. It was initially designed exclusively in a classic material such as marble, however, Kettal incorporates two other materials, for its more contemporary version.

Giro Low Side Table, designed by Vincent Van Duysen, is an elegant low side table. Giro is a collection that can blend into interiors and exteriors due to its tactility and pure lines. In Giro, we have a variety of shapes, textures, and materials (see the difference between the seating items and the coffee and side tables). And still, all the items merge harmoniously to create a warm, tactile, and pleasant atmosphere. It is a very versatile and wide collection composed of armchairs, tables, sofas, and club chairs, as well as coffee tables. The materials are the collection's protagonists, which seem almost not designed - it comes naturally together.

Like an architecture that is in keeping with its surroundings, the Kettal Maia, collection designed by Patricia Urquiola has a natural lightness and elegance. The design of the artisan braiding, the sturdiness of the aluminium frame, and the new, Porotex and chenille fabric collection create a combination that oozes energy

Vimini Dining Chair, designed by Patricia Urquiola, is a gorgeous dining chair. The Vimini collection came about following a conversation we had about Nanna Ditzel and her Basket chair; apart from both being designed by women, we have much in common. We called it Vimini because it means wicker in Italian and it sounds like Bimini, an island I like. We used just the right amount of outdoor wicker with a rougher wooden frame. It doesn't have the same modernist spirit as the Basket but it's familiar enough that, when you get close, it stirs a memory and makes you feel at home. That's what it was, more or less—an object of memory. The chair consists of a basket with large backrest cushions. Seen from the side and back it has that modernist look. The braiding is traditional, your classic outdoor fiber. ‘I fancied something really traditional, something a bit modernist, relaxed in the way we treated the fibre. And the Vimini, the chair with its classic braiding and baskets, it's captivating, and we wanted to make something neutral’.
