Inspired by\u00a0the iconic forum of ancient Roman culture, the quintessential meeting place for multiple civilizations where economic, religious, and cultural exchanges took place, the Foro collection by\u00a0Viccarbe<\/a>, designed by John Pawson<\/a>, reinterprets this spirit of gathering through timeless forms and noble materials.<\/p>\n\n\n

Made entirely from solid oak, the Foro table radiates warmth and sincerity. Its structure, with four legs placed at the outermost points, maximises usable space and fosters a sense of openness and interaction. It invites people to come together, to share moments, to work in unison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available in both square and rectangular formats and in various sizes, the Foro table can also be equipped with Viccarbe\u2019s new patented power system, an innovation that allows cables to be concealed within one of the legs, activated simply by pressure and with no visible screws, while preserving the sturdiness and clean lines of a piece designed for daily use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Pawson<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For over four decades, John Pawson has cultivated an architectural language of radical simplicity, one that speaks to the essential, but always with humility. His work spans a broad range of typologies and scales, from private homes and art galleries to museums, hotels, ballet sets, yacht interiors and even a bridge over a lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just as Alvar Aalto\u2019s bronze door handle has been described as \u201ca building\u2019s handshake\u201d, Pawson\u2019s designs are defined by an intimate engagement with the essence of spatial philosophy, through everything the eye sees or the hand touches. His method embraces the idea that \u201ceverything is architecture\u201d, approaching buildings and objects alike with the same deep sense of unity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether working on a monastery, a residence, a pan or a stage, his concerns remain constant: mass, volume, surface, proportion, junctions, geometry, repetition, light and ritual. In this way, even something as modest as a fork becomes a vessel for larger ideas, about how we live, what we value, and what we seek in the spaces that surround us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
