Mdf Italia - Tense Material table in walnut 300x120

"An intelligent beauty, the result of a thought and a know-how able to transmit a deep emotion through a wise accentuation of the peculiarities of the materials used". Piergiorgio Cazzaniga describes Tense Material.

Tense Material FINE WOOD in the version in NATIONAL WALNUT combines durability and resistance of wood to elegance and lightness, characteristics of the collection. The smooth surface has warm and intense shades, with infinite shades that enhance the characteristics of the wood. Tense Material Fine Wood adapts perfectly to more classic contexts, but also stands out in contemporary environments.

The possibility of inserting the top-access, the cable trays and the large dimensions, make Tense Material also suitable for work environments, where meetings are on the agenda and the need to accommodate more people around the table is increasingly frequent.
