Produced in Eindhoven, the VANDERPOLL table is the latest piece from Marijn van der Poll. Made-to-order, the table is built from 3mm plate steel with the option of a stainless steel tabletop (pictured) or black oak.
I wanted to design a table with a strong structural base. To have it 'sit' in your living room and be a central piece in your interior. I wanted to go beyond design as an object with a branded identity and found inspiration in heavy machinery. Massive objects, where functionality and strength dictate the buildup of an object made to last. The company name embossed on the front is thus merely a statement regarding its heritage in a functional way. As an option the name and city on the front can be substituted for it's new owner. A table is a place where family members gather to share a meal and their lives. As such it connects them and reflects their story as much as my role as fabricator.
Marijn's Jetstream table which debuted in Milan last year recently won a '2008 GOOD DESIGN Award' from The Chicago Design Museum of Architecture and Design.
