Dependable to the core, wood has an important role to play for the Tuky Side Table. Signed by Luca Nichetto, its solid laminated wood is finished with an open pored varnish to retain its natural structure.
The tabletop can be swivelled so that it is always available at the exact position it is needed – whether for a laptop, coffee or to put books on. A functional detail that takes skilled handcraftsmanship to realise, as the tabletop’s centre of gravity is constantly shifting as the surface is repositioned. All of these details make the Tuky Side Table a paradigm of contemporary hand-craftsmanship.
The Tuky’s tabletop can be covered with an optional leather pad, which references Wittmann’s long-standing expertise with this particular material while also providing all of the advantages associated with a non-slip surface. Held in place by magnets, it can be removed at will.
Luca Nichetto studied at the Art Institute of Venice and the University Institute of Architecture. He founded his eponymous design practice in Italy in 2006. Specialising in industrial design, product design and design consultancy.
