Timeless Furniture: Noguchi table



First appearing in 1939 and designed by Japanese-American sculptor Isamu Noguchi, this low, wood-based table with a curvaceous glass top fuses function with art. Throughout his life, Noguchi strove to create biomorphic sculptural pieces that were aesthetically pleasing as well as serviceable. Due to the simple yet alluring nature of his designs, Noguchi’s pieces wouldn’t look out of place in any modern, minimalist-chic home. This Tribeca coffee table from STL Loft Style was inspired by Noguchi’s work and will look good just about anywhere in your house. Bonus: This easy-on-the-eyes table is also a breeze to clean.
