SCRIBBLE – METAL COFFEE TABLE WITH ART
Scribble is a collection of coffee tables and side tables designed by Francesca Lanzavecchia for De Castelli, inspired by the graceful curves of a calligraphy pen and the smooth strokes of a marker pen, symbolizing the malleability of metal. The pieces in this collection take on unique shapes such as periods, commas, brackets and tildes, creating a new and artistic “interior alphabet”.

The interior is entirely made of stainless steel with a special mirror finish, creating a diverse color effect from the drinks and reflections from bottles and glasses, bringing an elegant look like in a club or cafe.
