Side Table MUECKE Walnut KNOLL

Designed by Jonathan Muecke for Knoll, the walnut Muecke Side Table is a piece that raises the same question as the entire collection of which it is part: what does wood look like when you decide to hide nothing from it? Its rounded trunnions, which intersect on neighboring planes and fit together where they meet, repeat with absolute coherence this system of distinctive junctions that is the intellectual and visual signature of the entire Muecke Wood collection, making each point of contact a statement as much as a constructive solution. In its walnut finish, it reveals a completely different facet of the collection: the golden warmth and natural veins of wood soften the geometric rigor of the assemblies, composing a balance between constructive precision and organic generosity that gives the room a warm and immediately accessible presence. Also just slipped into the corner of an armchair or a sofa, placed alone in a passageway like a fully-fledged sculptural object, it fits with the same obviousness in a residential interior with carefully chosen natural materials or in a contemporary space that cultivates the depth of its references. Associated with the Fauteuil and the Pouf Muecke in their respective finishes, it contributes to a set of rare coherence, where each piece speaks the same language with the same quiet conviction.
