NITA Contemporary Polished Copper Side Table

About the Item

One side table, 2019 Defying the ancient mathematical adage “you can’t square a circle,” this sculptural table combines a circular top with a square base of the exact same weight and surface area. Both foundational pieces as well as the table’s small circular feet are CNC routed from a single metal sheet and assembled using a proprietary folding technique, exemplifying the efficiency of form and the elegance of simplicity. Polished brass Stainless steel screws Design by Nicolo Taliani & Francesco Muran Nita is a collection of home and jewellery designs that blur industrial design and fine art. Discarding disciplinary bounds, it applies a process-driven approach to a subtly subversive range of informal yet elegant, simple yet culturally nuanced objects that transmit a palpable zeitgeist. This process begins with a visual art theory that balances primary shapes — squares, rectangles, circles, ellipses and triangles — with pure materials that convey a considered purpose, emotion and idea. Paired to complement and contrast, these foundational elements create an uncommon harmony and explore a design’s individual character and mutable potential. The resulting objects assimilate the patterns, techniques and nuances that surround us, particularly within the urban and industrial settings upon which our society is built, with an acute awareness of the importance of efficient and responsible use of materials, processes and local production. Based in Milan, Italy, Nita was founded by Nicolo Taliani, who unites his European heritage with an ongoing exploration of sculpture and fine art, establishing a unique design language that synthesises myriad inspirations. From architects Renzo Piano and Le Corbusier to artists Constantin Brancusi, Lucio Fontana and Isamu Noguchi to post-modernism and futurism movements, and beyond, this wellspring combine to inform declarative objects, including jewellery, lighting, furniture and sculpture.
