This 1960s sofa table reflects the principles of the International Style, a design movement that bridged architecture and furniture in the postwar era. Defined by clarity, proportion, and functionality, the piece embodies the spirit of modernist design.
The floating tabletop in fine walnut veneer rests on slender flat-steel legs, creating a subtle contrast between warmth and lightness – a hallmark of this architectural aesthetic.
Discrete drawers at both ends provide additional storage without disturbing the table’s geometric calm. Following the Bauhaus principle “form follows function,” the design captures the restrained elegance of 1960s modernism.
