Exquisite attention to detail, a trademark of Marc Sadler, is the distinctive feature of this design. The focus is on Zoo, a table designed for Caimi Brevetti, that represents the perfect balance of design and technology, the perfect combination of basic forms and complex materials.

The ethereal and essential clear glass tabletop is supported by four cone-shaped carbon fibre and steel legs. The design highlights a brand new way to use carbon: usually recognized for its very compact and homogenous qualities, its more distinctive, three-dimensional effects were brought out in this project. The sculptural leg of Zoo resembles a "spindle" wrapped in the carbon fibre. The result is a solid-looking object, with an organic, even animal-like feel that first captures the eye and then the touch. The cones are topped by brushed stainless steel mounting plates anchoring them to the glass top and finished with adjustable feet in the same material.

The deceivingly simple workmanship is actually very complex and highly researched, as Marc Sadler intended.
