Tablo square

The popular Tablo range, designed by Danish designer Nicholai Wiig Hansen, has been expanded with a square and rectangular version. The essence of the Tablo Table is the interaction between two materials with very different expressions, which combined form a minimalistic and stylish design. The refined sharp edge and rigorous expression of the table top go beautifully with the legs, giving the table a clean, minimalistic look.

The name, Tablo, refers to the English 'table' and the French 'tableau', the latter meaning a scenic, organized arrangement. It is crucial for Nicholai Wiig Hansen that function, material and aesthetics work together in the best way possible. The design needs to both be useful and solve a basic need - without compromising the visual expression. This is why it is part of Tablo's function that it can be quickly and easily assembled without screws.

Normann Copenhagen explains: "We wanted to add a whole new dimension to the range, so we figured: Why not modify the shape? The table's simple, sophisticated expression remains the same, but the square table opens up a number of new combination possibilities and furnishing options that we would like to offer our customers."

The new square and rectangular versions come in black and white with four legs in ash wood. They both work well on their own, in combination with each other, or put together with the round tables for a contrasting look. Tablo's simple design allows it to fit in with most interiors.
