Danese: Double Size

Matali Crasset's new table for Danese is easy and intuitive to adjust according to need, offering enhancing functionalities and flexibility to contemporary life.

Double Size is a convertible table designed by Matali Crasset for Danese. The birch and plywood table adjusts to the surrounding environment and its needs, opening and closing up to meet domestic or work requirements. It appears to be a classic table with a separating side panel but it can turn into a wide work surface.

The side panel lateral to the table, pivoting on itself, can be flattened out and becomes part of the main top. The lower part of the dividing panel that unfolds, near the legs, can rotate by 90° on its vertical axis, thus supporting the surface when it is lowered so that the latter can be stable, functional and reliable. Due to manufacturing efficiency, different functionalities are allowed.

The product is easy and intuitive to adjust according to need. It differs from classic stretchable or flap tables, offering enhancing functionalities and flexibility to our contemporary life: you can open Double Size up and host more people or ensure privacy by using the panel as a separating element. The hexagonal shape of the convertible top, when in vertical position, ensures privacy but does not completely block out the user's sight.

When the panel is down and becomes part of the surface, a lot of space is available and conversation is encouraged. In working environments, this solution allows for better space utilization. The user can configure individual or shared work positions according to activity. The table is available in natural wood and orange, or white. The fixed top is made of scratch-resistant lacquered wood, while the structure is composed of birch marine plywood.
