Recipio'14
Designed by: Antonio Citterio
Manufactured by: MaxaltoYear of production: 2014
Its name inspires a sense of refined hospitality, as does the plain and simple design. It has a slatted surface which rests on inclined legs with crossbeams. Available in several types of oak, it is a contemporary version of the typical refectory table. Not necessarily destined exclusively for the dining area, it reveals all of its elegance without any chairs around it. Available in two sizes. The series includes a two surface console. It will fit in any setting and can be used as table top or display.
Born in 1950 in the north Italian city of Meda, Antonio Citterio opened his first office at the age of just 22, before he had even completed his architecture degree in Milan. Since the 1990s at the latest, the successful architect has also been one of the most internationally sought-after designers, as is clear from the portfolio of renowned companies for which he works: world leading design brands such as Vitra and B&B Italia (furniture), Arclinea (kitchens) and Hansgrohe (bathrooms), all successfully implement his ideas. However, project developers and hotel chains also benefit from the Milan-based designer's esprit and design ideas. Citterio's CV is adorned with luxury lodgings for the prestigious Bulgari hotel chain, a luxury spa in Moscow and the title 'Royal Designer', which has been awarded to him by the British Royal Society.
