The “Corinto” table was designed by Ferdinando Meccani together with the “Corinto” sideboard at the end of the 1970s, in 1978. It was presented at one of the first editions of the Firenze Arreda Exhibition in Florence.
The design of the table and sideboard is based on squares rotated by 45°; a perfect shape that is re-proposed in detail from different points of view.
In the sideboard, the figure of the square contrasts with the curves of the central part where the volume is excavated.
Geometry, square and circle … in search of perfect symmetry.
