Acerbis Medium Creso Pedestal Table in Arabesque Marble Top and Brass Frame

About the Item

A timeless classic, created by one of the masters of contemporary design and graphics, evolves with new tactile pairings. With the unique form of a monolithic silhouette, Creso is supported by a single pedestal, thus transforming a table into the kind of shape that was the basis of Lella and Massimo Vignelli’s vision. Bolstered by a more faithful interpretation of Vignelli’s concept, the new Creso experiments with a use of materials that emphasises the strength of its design. Structure The cylindrical base (Ø 40 cm) is made with a steel tube, painted in a gun-metal grey or orbital bronze finish, or clad with a brass-plated steel foil. Another variation is the single-material version in matte Travertine, made from a single block. An internal iron column supports the weight of the entire structure without negatively impacting the marble cladding. A capital, painted in micaceous grey, completes the structure of the base. The transparent glass surfaces are attached to the base with stainless steel disks that, given the transparency, become distinguishing features. The marble surfaces are attached via metal discs painted micaceous grey. Top The surfaces are available in Ø 130 and Ø 160 and in the following finishes: _ transparent glass, 15 mm thick; _ white arabesque marble, black Marquinia, red Levanto, green Alpi, 20 mm thick; marbles with polyester glossy finishes are available upon request; _ matt Travertine, 20 mm thick, stone with a natural polished finish. NB The Travertine top is only paired with the base in the same finish. Size: Ø 130, Ø 160 cm; H 72 cm. Tables with top size Ø 180 cm and custom base Ø 50 cm available upon request, NOT feasible in Travertine marble finish. Feasibility, prices, and delivery times can be verified with the sales office. Important: select and premium slabs of marble. Any differences in spots, veining, or colour, or the presence of natural resin-filled cracks, are attributes. Lella and Massimo Vignelli are a husband-and wife team. They studied in Venice, ltaly, and in 1960 established the Massimo and Lella Vignelli Office of Design and Architecture in Milan, working with graphics, products, furniture and interiors. In 1965 they founded Unimark lnternational Corporation, and, in 1971, Vignelli Associates, with an office in New York and liaison offices in Paris and Milan. The Vignellis’ work has been awarded numerous prizes and exhibited several times in sector publications, in the United States and abroad. Several of his works are included in the permanent collections of several museums.

Massimo and Lella Vignelli

Massimo Vignelli and Lella Vignelli’s legacy can be seen everywhere in the logos of Bloomingdale’s, Ford and American Airlines, among others. In addition to their work in branding, they were prolific creators of modernist home furnishings, products and interiors, and the duo’s collaborations, which span 50 years, have left a profound mark on design and wider visual culture.

After meeting in Italy, Lella (1934–2016) and Massimo (1931–2014) began working together in 1961 and a decade later formed Vignelli Associates in New York. A self-described “information architect,” Massimo was committed to streamlining complex ideas into clear, visually arresting forms. (Witness the graphic identity that he cocreated with Bob Noorda for the New York City Transit Authority as well as his influential 1972 subway map.) The Vignellis’ most recognizable piece, for example, may be the Handkerchief chair, a stackable office chair made of compression-molded plastic that has the look of a cloth floating in air. It was created for Knoll in 1983 after they designed the brand’s logo.

Evidence of the couple’s influence can also be found in their Saratoga line (1964), the first collection of lacquered furniture, which helped herald in the trendy “glossy” look of the decade (and beyond). When the Vignellis created the Poltrona Frau Interview chair in 1988 for an Italian television station, it became widely sought after, “which goes to show you the power of the TV media,” the couple once said. Much like their elemental graphic designs, the Kono (1984) and Pisa tables (1985) — both created for Casigliani — cull the form of the table down to geometric shapes.

Vignelli furniture is often labeled as Massimo Vignelli’s alone, though he fought to have Lella recognized for her work, even throwing away magazines that neglected to give her due credit. As he wrote of their lifelong collaboration in his book Designed By: Lella Vignelli: “It is not holding a pencil with four hands that makes a partnership; it is sharing the creative act and exercising creative criticism which is reflected in the end result.”
