About the Item

This refined sofa table from the 1960s reflects the principles of the International Style, a movement that bridged architecture and furniture design in the postwar era. Defined by clarity, proportion, and functional restraint, the table embodies the spirit of modernist renewal. In its calm geometry and structural honesty, the design resonates strongly with the architectural language that emerged in postwar Germany — a language shaped by architects such as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The table’s balanced proportions and floating surfaces recall the spatial clarity and disciplined elegance seen in projects like the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin, where architecture was reduced to its essential elements. The floating tabletop in finely grained walnut veneer rests on slender flat-steel legs, creating a subtle yet expressive contrast between warmth and lightness. Discrete drawers integrated at both ends provide practical storage without interrupting the table’s strict geometric clarity. Guided by the Bauhaus principle “form follows function,” this piece stands as a quiet expression of honesty and freedom in design — conceived only fifteen years after the end of World War II, at a moment when modernism reasserted itself as a language of openness, transparency, and cultural renewal. The table integrates seamlessly into contemporary interiors while retaining its architectural presence as a collectible example of postwar International Style furniture.
