Side Table 606

Side tables from Artek, Designed by Aino Marsio Aalto

Product description

Composed of a tubular steel frame and a birch plywood top, Side Table 606 can be pulled tight to armchairs, sofas, and beds thanks to its three-quarter-moon base. Lightweight and versatile, it is at home in a wide range of settings. Designed by Aino Aalto during the period the Aaltos were working on the Paimio Sanatorium project in Finland, this side table was originally used as a stool for changing shoes.

Concept

The low table serves any number of functions, from a place to set down coffee or leave small items to a storage or display surface. Low tables may be drawn alongside or within reach of beds, sofas, and lounge chairs, positioned at the centre or periphery of an interior. Drawing the gaze down, the low table can provide a focal point, a plane around which furniture may be grouped; alternatively, the low table is a superb supporting player. The Artek collection showcases a diverse selection of low tables and celebrates a wealth of design history.
