Tibidabo Coffee table - Europe Grey glass top 8 mm thick (95 30)

coffee & side tables · aluminium · SKU 3108

L'ispirazione nasce da un libro per bambini di Bruno Munari "Disegnare un albero", dove partendo da una schematizzazione grafica della crescita vegetale, Munari insegna a disegnare vari tipi di alberi: una semplice linea che rappresenta il tronco si moltiplica in maniera regolare e proporzionale fino a formare la chioma. Abbiamo pensato di portare questo schema di crescita su un foglio bianco e poi di curvare il foglio stesso attorno ai cuscini. Il risultato e un binomio di eleganza essenziale ed estrema semplicita associato a colorazioni bianco e nero che ne sottolineano l'estetica fortemente grafica. / [printed English] The inspiration comes from a children's book by Bruno Munari, "Draw a tree". In the book Munari teaches how to draw various types of trees starting from a plant growth graphic schematization. A simple line represents the trunk and multiplies on a regular and proportional basis until it forms the foliage. We had the intuition to bring this growth pattern onto a white sheet and then bend the sheet around the pillows. The result is a combination of essential elegance and extreme simplicity associated with black and white colorings which emphasize the strong graphic aesthetics.

The TIBIDABO collection, in the book

22 pieces indexed across 22 spreads (reader pp. 51–72). Credited to Calvi Brambilla.

MODELLO REGISTRATO / REGISTERED MODEL: Registered-design notice printed at the foot of the collection description on the openers of EMMA (render p004), EMMA CROSS (p031), EMMA SUNSCREEN (p046), TIBIDABO (p051), SUMMER SET (p095), CRICKET (p110), BABYLON (p127), SYSTEM STAR (p136), SYSTEM (p144), BARCODE (p155) and BALI (p163). NOT printed on the BELT opener (render p073) — BELT is the one collection in part 1 whose opener carries no registered-model line.
teak di piantagione certificata / certified plantation teak: Timber sourcing claim printed on the SYSTEM opener (render p144, for the optional teak bench seat), the BARCODE opener (p155, whole collection) and the BALI opener (p163, whole collection). Printed wording: "teak di piantagione certificata" / "plantation certified solid teak" / "solid teak wood from certified plantation". No certification scheme or certificate number is printed.
soluzioni d'arredo / MULTIPLE SOLUTIONS (BELT): BELT carries two configuration-reference spreads, render p089 (printed 174-175) and render p093 (printed 182-183). Each prints eight plan-view sofa layouts labelled /01 to /08. NO article codes and NO dimensions are printed on either spread — they are layout inspiration only, not a parts list.
MODELLO REGISTRATO / REGISTERED MODEL: Registration statement printed on the technical spreads of BALI BERGÈRE DECK RELAX, NOSS, CLEVER, LINK, LAPIS, BENTO, PLINTO, BAHIA, MAAT and KOLONAKI. SMART instead prints 'MATERIALE REGISTRATO / REGISTERED MATERIAL' (referring to VAR#TEX, not the model).
LINK extendable mechanism: Dedicated spread 'link allungabile / EXTENDABLE TABLE' (printed 404-405) showing the 200x100 H73 in three states: closed 200, one 55 cm leaf to 255, two 55 cm leaves to 310. The photo captions are printed '200 mm / 255 mm / 310 mm' — evidently centimetres given the icons and the rest of the catalogue; recorded as printed, not corrected.
BENTO composition rules: 'soluzioni d'arredo / MULTIPLE SOLUTIONS' (printed 470-471): nine worked composition diagrams labelled /01 to /09 built from the seven BENTO modules. The prose states the customer may re-arrange purchased modules repeatedly and add further modules later, 'rispettando semplicemente le regole di composizione / following the possible options available'. Caption: 'DIVANO BENTO - TAVOLINO BELT - PANCA SYSTEM'.
CARPET material specification: 'Tappeti per esterno realizzati con fibre sintetiche, non-assorbenti e altamente resistenti all'azione degli agenti atmosferici. 100% Polipropilene / Outdoor carpet in synthetic fibers, non absorbent and highly resistant to bad weather. 100% Polypropelene' (spelling as printed).
