Back to Alvar Aalto 805 Table  
Alvar Aalto 31" 805 table.

Aalto invented a process for bending thick layers of birch to create graceful yet strong, light frames for a number of products including the Y805 tables.

Alvar Aalto was a highly talented architect and an eager spokesman for the international modernist movement. Aalto's designs were innovative and radical and became known for his experimental approach to bending wood, which greatly influenced American designers Charles & Ray Eames and Finnish-born Eero Saarinen. His style became known as humanist modernism. Alvar Aalto's dialogue with nature, architecture, design and the human being has become a living legacy.

This table features a lacquered birch frame and a .5" thick glass top.  Table is 17.3" high, and 31.1" square.
