Named after the mythical Titan condemned to hold up the heavens on his shoulders, the solid legs of the Atlas table stand strongly as support for the spacious tabletop.
Named after the mythical Titan condemned to hold up the heavens on his shoulders, the solid legs of the Atlas table stand strongly as support for the spacious tabletop. The meeting and contrast between the legs and the tabletop is central to the design, where each element exaggerates the other giving the table its distinct presence and brutalist feel. For Atlas, John Astbury has taken inspiration from several influences in architectural history. There are references to porticoes and colonnades, but Atlas builds mainly on the archetypal post-and-lintel construction. Combined with simple geometry, the circle and the square, it is the primary archetypes that together create the table’s character and composition.

Safety Precautions
Atlas Coffee Tables are very heavy and should always be assembled by two people or more. Always handle marble and travertine with care – each slab is unique and could break upon sudden contact with hard objects, or if subjected to high forces.
Cleaning & Maintenance
For daily care and cleaning it is recommended to use a cleaning agent specifically developed for stone or marble, and to wipe the table with a soft dry or moist cloth. Do not use any abrasive cleaning tools, and never use strong cleaning agents such as household glas cleaner, white spirit or turpentine.
