The 004 coffee table from Vaarnii, designed by the duo Soft Baroque, celebrates the raw and honest materiality of Finnish pine. Inspired by traditional log house joinery, it boldly and playfully reinterprets these age-old carpentry techniques. The 004 coffee table from Vaarnii features deliberately exaggerated rounded joints that serve as both functional and sculptural graphic elements. Solid and stable, the 004 coffee table from Vaarnii makes an extraordinary statement, designed to last well beyond everyday use—capable of supporting far more than just a cup of coffee.
