NUKI
Nuki is a robust coffee table that sits right at the crossroads between Japanese tradition and a humble, Nordic appreciation for the forests’ finest materials.
The table is designed around the principles of Torii – the gate that marks the transition from the profane to the sacred in Japanese Shinto-temples – gathering inspiration from its wood- and stone-based construction. A solid layer of marble rests firmly on a strong, foundation of Nordic elm to complete the seamless marriage between Japanese and Nordic aesthetics.
