There’s something about the smell of the sea that calls to us. A briny froth caps the waves, signaling the turning of our world. The Tasca Table Large from FRAMA is made to be used anywhere, even outdoors – and even among the waves themselves. A beautifully wrought satin finish takes charge, a subtlety that hearkens to the flow of water itself. Also available in a smaller size, the Tasca Table is ready to host – perfect for two, three, or four.
At first, the Tasca Table seems like something you’ve seen before – a solid ‘x’ creating the base, a singular cylindrical leg, and a circular top. In simplicity, technical detail is obfuscated within minutia, for those who look to find it. Subtle but intentional variation emerges within the hand-wrought finish, a graceful patina developing over time. As the aluminum is left bare, signs of wear are natural and welcome, a sign of a life well-loved.
A luminosity emerges in soft light, almost seeming to glow from within. As aluminum is strong, light, and endlessly recyclable, it was a natural choice for the team to expand their collection of aluminum pieces, adding a sustainable lens to the project. As we dive into a new era of the anthropocene, it is our duty and privilege as designers to take stock of how we create, and to design within the flow of our natural world, not against it. FRAMA continues to explore this balance – inviting us to take our time, and feel good in doing so.
Copenhagen-based FRAMA celebrates the intersection between design and experience, encouraging us to celebrate the details, and hopefully be a bit more mindful. Natural materials and simplified geometries help retain integrity within the collection, keeping spaces warm, practical, and honest.
