Noguchi Combines Product Design with Sculpture and Theater Experience

Isamu Noguchi was originally a sculptor before experimenting with environmental design, theater sets, and eventually product design. This coffee table is a perfect example of his sculptural background, as this piece is not only functional, but also perfectly combines furniture into art. This marriage of form and function means that a well-built, sturdy table can also be a very attractive, eye-catching conversation starter for residential homes or professional environments. “Everything is sculpture,” said Isamu Noguchi. “Any material, any idea without hindrance born into space, I consider sculpture.”

The solid wood base is available in walnut, cherry, and black. They recently introduced a brand new color, called white ash. The elegant, curved bottom is an organic form that twists and turns into an interlocked form, acting as a tripod, that holds up thick transparent glass. Understated, but definitely far from boring, the legs are almost like puzzle pieces, which yearn to fit as one. Instead, they keep the rounded triangle glass top upright, and offer unwavering support.
