About this product
Architonic ID: 1242878
Year of Launch: 2006
MedaMorph: any shape, any size
In addition to the standard configurations, the flexible base system of MedaMorph makes it possible to create tables of any shape or size. For customer-specific table units, the following planning criteria are required:
- room size, possibly including plan
- desired table shape and size
- table top surface
- number of seats
- number of power and data connections
- type of electrification: table-top unit, under-table unit
Concept
MedaMorph was developed in collaboration with Alberto Meda, whose engineering background is evident in the form and function of this prestigious conference table system. The simple yet refined base, consisting of star connectors, profiles of variable length and two types of legs, offers a construction kit of modular options. In addition to configurable visitor, meeting and conference tables, the MedaMorph Collection makes it possible to create table groupings in any size and shape.
The free Vitra Configuration System (VCS) planning software features automated pricing along with product logic and a visualisation tool. After selection of the table's shape, size, top surface and the number of seats, VCS calculates and displays the required profiles, star connectors, table tops and legs. Each of these parameters can be varied in the product logic.
Upon request, Vitra can provide data for integration in OFML-compatible third-party software. New data updates are available for download several times a year.
