About This Piece

Vintage Design

Discover the timeless elegance of the Model 180 table, a creation by the esteemed Carlo De Carli for Sormani, Italy, dating back to 1971. This exquisite piece boasts a striking white lacquer base, a testament to De Carli's penchant for harmonising form and function. The juxtaposition of the pristine lacquer against the rich rosewood top creates a captivating visual contrast, exemplifying the sophisticated design language characteristic of this iconic collaboration.

The table's design, marked by clean lines and a meticulous attention to detail, reflects both the ingenuity of Carlo De Carli and Sormani's commitment to crafting enduring pieces. The rosewood top not only adds warmth to the composition but also showcases the impeccable craftsmanship that defines Italian design.

Carlo De Carli (1910-1999) not only left an indelible mark on 20th-century design as an architect and designer but also distinguished himself as one of Italy's leading and highly esteemed professors. His profound impact extended beyond the realm of physical design, encompassing a fundamental influence on the theoretical reflections and ethical principles shaping an entire generation of architects. Graduating in architecture from the Politecnico di Milan in 1934, De Carli maintained a strong connection with the university throughout his illustrious career. Serving as the Dean of the Faculty of Architecture from 1965 to 1968 and teaching until 1986, he solidified his legacy as an influential academic figure.

A revered academic and prolific writer, De Carli's philosophy centred on the seamless integration of space, material, and the human body and gesture. with this ethos, he effectively fostered a dialogue between design, academia, and the craftsmanship world. His formative years included collaboration with the legendary architect and designer Gio Ponti, whose influence played a pivotal role in shaping De Carli's language and approach to design. Subsequently establishing his own studio, De Carli's designs gained widespread recognition, earning production by some of the most significant and innovative Italian design companies.
