epic coffee table
Design GamFratesi, 2019
Natural travertine, steel
Made in Italy by Gubi
Named after the epic poems of ancient times, the Epic Coffee Table is a sculptural piece of furniture inspired by Greek columns and Roman architecture.
Originally made in Italy from travertine stone, the table's new variant marks the first time GamFratesi has worked with steel plates, which are galvanized, lacquered, and then treated with a series of hand-finishing processes to create a unique surface expression for each table. The table's monolithic form remains, now with an industrial expression, in which a new detail can be discovered with every use. The collection brings personality to private settings and an intriguing sense of weight and tactility to public and hospitality spaces, where its resilient surfaces offer exceptional levels of durability. The varying heights and diameters within the Epic Table Collection mean a single monochromatic table can stand alone or be combined in dynamic clusters of varying material, height and color.
With their own dual heritage, Italian Enrico Fratesi and Danish Stine Gam share GUBI's ability to synthesize seemingly opposing ideas, the classic and the contemporary, the intellectual and the sensual, the understated and the expressive, the manufactured and the unique. GamFratesi's Epic Collection brought the aesthetics of classical architecture and the rich textures of natural stone into the home.
