Knoll International • Grasshopper dining table
"If this table could be described in just two words, they would be 'curved' and 'light'. Grasshopper does indeed take its name from the animal that has six precision instruments for legs. Here there are four, equally long and incredible and yet perfectly functional. Above them sits a table top so thin that it seems it could take off and rise into the air. An object so light and compact that it goes perfectly with all the chairs in the Knoll collection. And then I wanted it to have the height of a classic table, slightly lower than today's, a few centimetres less, in order to encourage a preferred elegance at the table", is how Lissoni describes the new table collection. The elegance of Grasshopper derives from the combination of surfaces and structure: the surfaces are distinguished by their delicacy and are available in an innovative rectangular shape with rounded corners or in a circular format, while the structure consists of very thin, high-performance cast elements available in chromed, patinated or lacquered finishes. The table top is available in unusual and exquisite materials such as Rosso Rubino marble, glass and woods. Every element of the collection expresses the value of Knoll craftsmanship, evident in the working of raw materials of the highest quality and in careful, passionate details that lend these extremely versatile tables a particular charm. Grasshopper also includes a family of side tables conceived as a minimal planetary system. At various heights they float as if suspended in the air, supporting the hypothesis that a gentle spirit is an ethereal gift. The side tables use the same materials and combine with the main table top to create secondary tables of differing sizes that can be moved along the perimeter, tracing circular orbits. The versatility of these tables results not only from their clear, geometric aesthetic and their various sizes and heights, but also from the variety of finishes available for the table top. Easily adaptable, they add equally refined accents in the private living room or in the public lounge area.
