At the upcoming London Design Festival, Secolo will present the Kora Coffee Table, a study in balance, offset geometry, and layered composition. The table’s silhouette is deliberate yet improvised, as if carved from a sketch made in motion.

The design hinges on contrast. Unpredictable marble tops shift angle from corner to corner, their polished weight perched lightly above substantial wood legs. These supports join the slab from the outside, never quite symmetrical, giving each table a subtle tension. Available in two heights, the pieces invite combination—pushed together, overlapped, or staggered in ways that turn a simple coffee table into a fluid arrangement.

Materiality does the rest. Marble offers richness and permanence, while the legs, hand-finished in solid wood, keep the profile grounded. The result is a table system equally at home in a residential lounge or a hospitality suite, where flexibility of layout is as important as statement.

Kora belongs to a larger conversation about coffee tables that challenge convention. Much like the Chubby Coffee Table by Arthur Vallin, it trades predictable symmetry for personality. And personality, when paired with craft, is what makes a piece memorable in commercial spaces where first impressions matter most.
