Kazuhide Takahama’s Antella is a dual-purpose piece: a console that
can be transformed into an oval table. The polyester painted frame,
with a gloss or matte finish, is evocative of the ancient art of lacquer
work, which was used on other products in the SimonCollezione. The
two leaves are hinged and, in the console position, are secured using
a magnet. Where space is available they can be opened up to form the
table. Against the wall, Antella is a console. In the middle of the floor, it
becomes a large table.
