ABOUT PRODUCTID 28279
This set of two Demetrio 45 side tables, designed by Vico Magistretti for Artemide in the 1960s, represents a hallmark of Italian Space Age design. Each table is crafted from molded plastic in a vivid, warm-toned orange. The design features four slender, slightly outward-curving legs supporting a smooth square top with softly rounded corners. The tables are stackable, offering versatility for different interior arrangements. There are no visible joints or hardware, emphasizing a seamless, monolithic appearance, while the glossy finish reflects light and intensifies the color. The proportions are balanced, giving a sense of lightness combined with structural stability. The set is preserved in good condition, showing minor scratches and gentle scuffs typical for its age, without affecting the integrity of the furniture.
These tables evoke the spirit of the 1960s, an era when design boldly embraced new materials and technologies to reshape everyday forms. Their orange sheen recalls the flicker of neon lights in modernist Milan, while the organic flow of the silhouette invites a sense of playful experimentation. The tables speak in the voice of an epoch that saw plastic as a symbol of the future – a testament to optimism and the belief that daily life could be transformed through vibrant color and innovative form.
The set may serve as a striking color accent in a retro-inspired living room or fit seamlessly into an eclectic, collector’s interior. It would pair well with a minimalist sofa or alongside other mid-century design icons. The tables can be combined with a lamp featuring a chrome base or a geometric-patterned rug to highlight their futuristic heritage. For maximum effect, consider placing them against
