Zanotta Segreto Night Table: Futuristic yet Timeless.

Category: Furniture

Zanotta Segreto Night Table

The Segreto night table with drawer, designed by Ilaria Marelli and Diana Eugeni for Zanotta, is a brilliantly minimalist piece of furniture. With its clear methacrylate frame, the Segreto night table has a futuristic appearance combined with a timeless elegance.

In our view the highlight of this ingeniously minimalist design is the eccentric rectangular drawer that appears to be floating just in the middle of the table.  It can be used as a night table or a side table in any modern living room. We are just hoping that you are not the kind of person that stores personal items in your night table, because with the Zanotta Segreto nothing is hidden.

Essentially the designer reinterpreted the shape of an archetypal lamp and expressed it using an entirely different medium. The Outlight Table Lamp is made in France and comes in two variations, in oak or in white lacquered MDF.
