Belleville Table Outdoor Ø79.6cm

The Belleville Table Outdoor Ø79.6cm was created by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec for the manufacturer Vitra.

With offices in Switzerland and Germany, this company is renowned for its cutting-edge furniture by international designers. Brothers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec have been working together since the late 1990s. The subject of numerous exhibitions and monographs, their designs are deceptively low-key, understated and steeped in the French way of life. Several of their pieces are on permanent display in the Pompidou Centre and the New York Museum of Modern Art.

Standing 74cm in height, the Belleville Table Outdoor Ø79.6cm is named after the Belleville district of Paris where the brothers Bouroullec have their offices, a traditionally working-class area that also attracts writers and artists. The simple look of the table conjures up images of small Parisian cafes. At the same time, the Belleville Table Outdoor Ø79.6cm reflects the designers' eye for subtle details - for example, the durable powder coating to the tubular metal base, or the plastic rim that wraps around the outer edge of the wood-veneered table top.
