Philippe Starck's 239 Fenc-e Nature outdoor coffee table for Cassina is intended as a reinvention of the traditional seat in favour of a fresh viewpoint.
The sandblasting processing of teak wood for the elements of the slats that, when combined, constitute the support surface is worked in detail as part of the creation into the formal aspect.
The reproduction of the fundamental structure of the coffee table, which is also present in the seats of the couch and armchair, which can be combined with one another and are part of the same series, accomplishes both functional and versatile goals of the design.
The bottom of the coffee table is crafted from aluminium that has been die-cast.
Each material was chosen based on its ability to maintain the accessory's formally elegant attributes as well as its structural integrity.
