A set of modern rectangular and square tables, designed by Michael Anastassiades, a Cypriot by birth who has made London his home.
In 2021, the minimalist character of Half a Square, has seen the addition of a new distinctive finish with a matt white glass, capable of enhancing the geometric rigour of a design that appears simple and linear.
A modern and reassuring aesthetic dictated by the use of rich and material finishes: the natural grain of the thermo oak enhances the high craftsmanship of the project, while pewter defines the design.
“I wanted to design a very minimal table, so it became a very interesting exercise right from the beginning, in how do you actually achieve the most minimal table with a very simplified geometric section."
Michael Anastassiades
His project is distinctly minimalist in design but rich in his choice of materials.
The joint between the parts determines a decorative triangular-shape finished in brass which enhances the solidity of the frame and characterizes the elegance of the design.
A design where Anastassiades’ engineering training almost prevailed over his skills as a designer to offer us a unique and intriguing object.
Michael Anastassiades founded his studio in London in 1994. He trained as a civil engineer at London’s Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine before taking a masters degree in industrial design at the Royal College of Art.
