The Private Dinning Table by Space Copenhagen
"It started out being a storage series primarily, but this year we are launching the table series that we also feel
has a lot of potential in a modern home where it can create a calm scene for the domestic rituals, a place for a lot
of different things to happen, both work and social occasions."
– Signe Bindslev Henriksen and Peter Bundgaard Rützou, Designers,
Space Copenhagen
PRIVATE
With GUBI’s new dining tables, Space Copenhagen has trans-
lated the clean lines and balanced expression that characterized
the Private Collection to a new furniture category. By expanding
the Private design language from storage and display units to
dining tables, the studio has created a genuinely versatile table
concept that can bring elegance and symmetry to the most
important rooms in the home.
Large in scale but lightweight in appearance, the dining tables
share the same inspiration as the rest of the Private Collection:
the beauty, balance and simplicity found in antique Japanese
furniture. The tables embody Space Copenhagen’s modern-
day response to the traditional craft techniques used in
Japanese joinery, which are visually translated into signature
design details.
The Private Dining Table is constructed from four wooden
elements: two tapered legs are attached to the veneered
tabletop via a solid-wood crossbeam, which is held in place
by strong metal fixings. The result is a stable and sturdy table
whose robustness is belied by the delicacy and refinement of
its appearance.
