Contemporary coffee table VENEZIA

The VENEZIA coffee table is made of 3 TIPTOE table legs 43cm and a recycled plastic tabletop 80cm. The VENEZIA table top is made from a hundred pots of yogurt, which explains its white color. NB: Each tabletop has its own story and is unique, colors and patterns can vary, that’s what makes this collection so charming. An sustainable approach to furniture design TIPTOE’s mission is to make sustainable furniture, well-designed, well-made and build to last. In line with these values, we have spent several months putting together this collection of tables and shelf units in recycled plastic, designed with the future of furniture firmly in mind. There’s still a long way to go, but we firmly believe that our sector, too, must align with new modes of consumption and we want, in our own small way, to start the ball rolling! Our aim is to demonstrate that it is possible to design objects in recycled plastic that combine beauty and timeless style as well as being long-lasting. The challenge we faced was to go beyond mere recycling and to create extraordinary items that make us completely forget the previous use of the plastic from which they are made! VENEZIA, Terrazzo inspiration and oval shape It takes around 100 yoghurt pots to produce the top for a VENEZIA table! This explains the top’s white colouring. The burst of colours, gold or silver, come from the label fragments which also give us clues about its previous incarnation! The VENEZIA is really a nod to Terrazzo, the celebrated tiles, also traditionally made from cast-offs of other bits of mineral waste. Each VENEZIA table is unique and has its own, individual history, of plastic given a second youth through recycling!
