Driade Tables
Italian
Italian furniture brand Driade offers modern designs that are joyful, whimsical and slightly mischievous — words that might be used to describe the tree nymph of Greek mythology for which the company is named. Faye Toogood’s chunky, stout Roly Poly armchair and Fabio Novembre’s enigmatic Nemo chair — in which a backrest assumes the form of a human face — are just two examples of Driade’s eclectic furnishings.
Driade was founded in 1968 by brother and sister Enrico and Antonia Astori, and Adelaide Acerbi Astori, Enrico’s wife. Described by the company as a “factory of art,” Driade was focused solely on bringing distinctive and creative seating, case pieces and decorative objects to market in its early years. The brand sought to mass-produce decor and furniture that could also be seen as provocative works of art.
Driade's initial collaborations included Italian designers such as Enzo Mari, Nanda Vigo, Giotto Stoppino and Rodolfo Bonetto, to name a few. In the 1980s, the brand worked with influential and renowned designers from around the globe. In 1984, Driade partnered with French designer Philippe Starck and debuted his iconic Costes armchair during the same year. Projects with architects and furniture designers such as Ron Arad, Toyo Ito, Borek Sipek, Patricia Urquiola and others followed into the 2000s.
Over more than five decades — the company celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2018 — Driade’s fruitful partnerships have culminated in a vast catalog of chairs, sofas, coffee tables and other furnishings for the home and garden that evoke a unique and diverse blend of cultures.
Driade has also garnered international acclaim, winning the Compasso d’Oro award in 1979 and 2001 for Enzo Mari’s Delfira chair and ebony-finished, chipboard-top table, and again in 2008 for Ron Arad’s MT3 rocking armchair.

"Lybra" Tempered Glass and Steel Table Designed by Elliott Littman for Driade
By Driade, Elliott Littman
Located in Brooklyn, NY
"Lybra" is a dining table, designed by Elliott Littman and manufactured by Driade, featuring a silver grey painted steel structure with tempered glass th. 0.47" top.
Indoor use only.
DIMENSIONS:
D. 56.7", W. 127.5", H. 28.3"
Tables can be considered as a project in tension between architecture and sculpture for a designer. Littman visualizes this Dual nature designing Lybra table by emphasizing the supporting steel beam, making it clear through top transparency and giving it the value of a craftwork.
ELLIOTT LITTMAN, a confirmed cultural wanderer intermediate between new world creative happiness and old world intellectual restlessness, moves quickly from Washington to Vienna, dividing himself impartially between New York and Milan and between the activity of critic and writer and constructive application to the furniture and structure themes.
Like a sculptor, Littman gives shape to function by modelling objects that are useful for daily life but also charming to look at, pieces of design similar to three-dimensional prostheses from a virtual universe built on descriptive geometrical magic. While for many years he has been exploring the mysteries of an “American archaeology” made of abandoned spaces...

"Didymos" Oval Marble Top and Crystalplant Base Table by A. Astori for Driade
By Driade, Antonia Astori
Located in Brooklyn, NY
"Didymos" is an elegant and refined oval table, designed by Antonia Astori and manufactured by Driade, with crystalplant base and marble top.
Indoor use only.
DIMENSIONS:
D. 55.1", W. 78.7", H. 28.3"
In a table, oval means perfect: no edge, no head of the table, no “odd” diner and, above all, a form expanded in space. Antonia Astori balanced then the top elegant simplicity with a sculptural base, made of a malleable as well as contemporary material.
ANTONIA ASTORI, after graduating in Industrial and Visual Design at Lausanne, founded Driade in 1968 with her brother, Enrico, and sister-in-law, Adelaide Acerbi. She has designed furniture systems and furnishings as well as installations and exhibitions for Driade. In addition to her work in furniture design, she has also worked in interior design on projects for homes, offices, showrooms and stores.
