The signature interlocking wood base offers a fresh perspective from every angle, while the thick glass top is made to withstand everyday wear and tear.

The Noguchi Coffee Table was originally designed in 1939 as a commission from the president of MoMA and is now featured in the Museum's collection. Noguchi modified the design in 1944 to accompany an article by designer George Nelson, entitled, "How to Make a Table." This design reflects the biomorphic imagery of Noguchi's contemporary sculpture. It consists of just three pieces: a free-form plate-glass top with flat polished edges, and a self-stabilizing tripod made of two interlocking curved legs of solid or ebonized walnut. With its successful balance of sculptural form and everyday function, this piece is one of Isamu Noguchi's best-known designs. Made by Herman Miller®. Some assembly required.

The sculptor and designer Isamu Noguchi described the Coffee Table as his best furniture design – no doubt because it is reminiscent of his biomorphic sculptures in bronze and marble from the same period, translating the typical forms of the latter into a piece of sculptural furniture. Manufactured by Vitra Dimensions:
I 1951 skabte Isamu Noguchi, en japansk-amerikansk billedhugger-designer, Akari Light Sculptures, en håndlavet kunstserie med over 100 bord-, gulv- og loftlamper lavet af washi-papir og bambus. Hver Akari, der har fået sit navn fra det japanske for lys og klarhed, er omhyggeligt lavet i Ozeki-værkstedet, en traditionel familievirksomhed i Gifu. Papirlanternerne er nu ikoniske over hele verden og er kendt for deres unikke og uventede charme. Ved at kombinere klassisk japansk håndværk med moderne design giver Akari-lamper et blødt og diffust lys af enestående kvalitet.
