It is, so to speak, a collaborative effort: André le Stang, a freelance collaborator of Prouvé, had drawn the organic table form, from which we took the original dimensions. The circular recesses in the base were also inspired by Prouvé – the diameter comes from his doors, and Axel Bruchhäuser used them to shape the base. Incidentally, the idea for these “see-throughs” came from none other than the British architect Alison Smithson. And so it is a workpiece created entirely according to Prouvé’s conviction: no one creates anything alone.
