Valmarana table by Carlo Scarpa for Simon International, 1972

In Carlo Scarpa's work, every constructive element becomes part of the object's formal language. The Valmarana table perfectly reflects this approach: a design where structure, proportions, and details are conceived as components of a single system, with no separation between function and design.

Observed closely, the table reveals the particular attention to joinery and the relationship between materials that characterizes much of Scarpa's work. Nothing is hidden or solely entrusted to decoration; on the contrary, it is precisely the constructive details that define the project's identity and transform it into an object with a strong architectural presence.

Its generous dimensions make it particularly suitable as an important dining table or a large table for reception areas. Despite its scale, the design maintains remarkable visual balance thanks to the precision of its proportions and the clarity of its structure.

Produced by Simon International in 1972, the Valmarana belongs to a particularly significant era of Italian design, when the collaboration between companies and designers gave rise to objects destined to transcend the logic of simple serial production. Even today, it is considered one of the most representative tables of Carlo Scarpa's design journey and a highly authoritative presence in contemporary interiors.
