The Florian coffee table, created by Vico Magistretti in 1989 and remastered by the archive in 2021, combines simplicity and functionality. Ingeniously functional, Florian represents Magistretti’s supreme simplicity, with a lightweight table built on a folding frame that folds up to hang on the wall like a graphic object. In Francesco Meda and David Lopez Quincoces’ new version, it is enhanced with a brass mechanism and lacquered finishes in modern shades such as mustard yellow, dark green and brick red, making it ideal for contemporary living.

Vico Magistretti
Vico Magistretti, born in 1920 in Milan, inherited his passion for architecture from his family, already renowned and active in the field and from whom he took inspiration for his future studies at the Polytechnic of Milan, where he graduated in 1945. During his professional activity, Magistretti dealt with architecture, urban planning and industrial design. In 1948 he won the Grand Prix of the VII Triennale. He participated in exhibitions and held conferences in Europe, America and Japan. Furthermore, some of the objects he designed are still present today in the permanent collections of the MoMa in New York and 13 other American and European museums. Magistretti's approach to design, which makes him one of the most important fathers of Italian design, is based on process principles, first of all the very close interaction with the manufacturing companies starting from the concept and design definition of the product.
