Vitra Noguchi is a coffee table designed by Isamu Noguchi in 1944. The sculptor and designer Isamu Noguchi himself described the Coffee Table as his best furniture design – no doubt because it is reminiscent of his biomorphic sculptures in bronze and marble from the same period, translating the typical forms of the latter into a piece of sculptural furniture. The heavy plate glass top of the Vitra Coffee Table rests on two identical wooden elements placed at right angles. The base of Vitra Coffee table is available in black ash, walnut or maple. Varnished solid wood base, 19 mm glass top with rounded edges.
The oeuvre of Japanese-American artist and designer Isamu Noguchi is unusually multi-faceted, ranging from the fine arts to industrial design. Since 2002, Vitra has produced re-editions of his designs in cooperation with the Isamu Noguchi Foundation in New York.
