Nature and construct

“Kazimir” by Philipp Mainzer for e15

3/28/2017

Philipp Mainzer was inspired by the Russian Suprematists when designing his new “Kazimir” table. The table’s seemingly Constructivist frame made of powder-coated steel is also reminiscent of the refectory tables of yore. The frame and top contrast, with the latter made of solid European oak or walnut and available in lengths up to 3.60 meters. While Kazimir will be on show at the e15 trade-fair booth with an integrated cable management system, it stands in the “RAW” version in the brand’s showroom with a top consisting of a planed wane.

The "raw" version will be shown at the showroom of e15.

The design scene is soon set to meet up once again in Milan where it will riotously celebrate a festival of creativity centered around the Salone del Mobile. Following a crisis-induced pause for breath, the pace of things is stepping up again.
