Description
Carlo Scarpa “Argo” Oval Table for Simon Gavina, Red Travertine, Italy, 1975
The “Argo” travertine table is part of the ‘Ultrarazionale’ collection by Simon Gavina. At the base of the table is the architectural influence visible that Scarpa is inspired by. The oval tabletop stretches out almost impossible, creating a sense of excitement. The time in which this table was designed is also worth noting, as the use of such luxurious, Classic materials as solid marble and travertine was rather innovative. This new tendency is anticipated in Classic shapes and expensive, durable materials that would, in fact, prove to have significant success in the coming years.
