Using 2 mathching pieces of crafted wood and a softly curved 3/4"-thick piece of tempered glass, Isamu Noguchi crafted a striking glass coffee table that has endured for decades. The Noguchi Table posesses a "lightness" due to its glass materials and uncluttered frame that allows viewers to see through it, a trait that enhances its surroundings. This Herman Miller Coffee Table has been cherished in design circles since it was first introduced in 1948.
 Florence Knoll's name will forever be associated with her role as co-founder of Knoll Associates, but she was an outstanding designer in her own right. Indeed, her penchant for seeking out inspirational designs for Knoll would not have been possible without a background rich in design and architecture. Among her creations is the Knoll Coffee Table; this 1961 design blends a variety of tops into a metal frame for a seamless, coherent form. With a table top available in glass, veneers, and marbles, and granite, the Knoll Coffee Table can match any existing decor. |
