Hasta La Ideas

Tom Dixon will be in Milan this month with some bold designs:

Fluoro Shade:

Made from blow moulded polycarbonate, externally powder coated in fluorescent orange and demonstrating Tom’s passion for roughness, the Fluoro Shade is inspired from heavy duty work paints in industrial factory environments. A colour often used in high visibility safety clothing, Fluoro Shade brings an energetic light source to any interior either used alone or grouped as multiples.

Spot Table:

The Spot Tables are enamel coated tables that consist of a heavy weighted base with two different height stems with either a square or a round top. Coated in heavy duty vitreous enamel, an ultra hygienic and industrial process in which particles of glass are sprayed on to cast iron, and then fired at furiously high temperatures.

Not only are the results highly functional, the materials qualities are extremely hard wearing with an extraordinary depth of colour. The two different heights can be interchanged as desired with either a square or circular top. Enamel colours available are black, white and burnt red.

Screw table:

The Screw Table allows for many surfaces and functions. Dining, coffee and side tables from one bomb proof heavy cast iron tripod and a solid marble top. The combination of materials form a surprisingly elegant cafe table. The industrial strength aluminum screw allows for multiple heights by simply spinning the top.
