Karlsruhe table - inspired by Egon Eiermann

  • For small workstations in the home office
  • Choice of melamine (white, black) or linoleum (anthracite)
  • Solid stainless steel frame - filigree, stable, without cross brace
  • Made to measure and mobile on castors
  • Also available as a frame only

This small, simple design desk for the home office combines a matt white table top with a finely polished stainless steel frame made from a solid round rod. The design picks up on central principles of the Karlsruhe architect and university lecturer Egon Eiermann - but is formally developed further: The frame deliberately dispenses with a cross strut, while remaining extremely stable and visually light.

The height-adjustable feet compensate for uneven floors, while the cross strut can be positioned flexibly. In combination with the fixed connection via recessed Rampa sockets, the result is a sophisticated, stable table system - also suitable for use on castors. The table is suitable for a wide range of environments: Home offices, studios or modern living areas. Also available as a base frame only.

Also available as an outdoor version with teak table top:

German craftsmanship

Made from brushed V2A stainless steel solid material, produced with green electricity in Karlsruhe. All metal parts are sanded by hand with a satin finish for a fine feel, high durability and a consistent finish. The table top comes from a regional joinery, is precisely crafted and firmly screwed to the frame. This ensures lasting stability, even during mobile use. Production takes place in a closed material cycle. More about the stainless steel and the surface >>

Design

The table combines a clear, minimalist design with high functionality. The table top with all-round real wood edge and the filigree stainless steel frame form a formal unit. The minimalist design deliberately dispenses with cross-bracing for greater lightness combined with high stability and sturdiness.

Ingenious in itself

The Karlsruhe table makes it possible in our guest room due to the individual dimensions, the Karlsruhe table provides a desk in our guest room for which there is actually no space. At the same time the table encloses the room in question without filling it. It stands on a solid construction that is so filigree that the table top almost seems to float. The polished rods give the steel the steel used a rarely beautiful look and feel. Together with the design of the wooden top, the product is in itself", which is also due to the the impressive quality of the craftsmanship contributes significantly to this.

Class manufactured table

A really well-made table, excellent workmanship, very sturdy despite its delicate appearance and construction very stable, very high-quality linoleum-covered table top. The well packed table was quick and easy to assemble! Unfortunately, it caused high "follow-up costs". The old desk container and the old desk chair suddenly looked shabby next to the Karlsruhe table. shabby next to the Karlsruhe table. So they have now been replaced (Attention USM container and Vitra Aluchair) and the Karlsruhe table was also perfectly packaged. Karlsruhe table was also perfectly packaged, in short: a top product.
