David Allan Pesso Designs Dayton Occasional Table Program
David Allan Pesso, founder of the newly relaunched New Studio brand and acclaimed industrial designer, introduces the Dayton occasional table series now available through Plural Studios. Designed to bring a minimalist residential feel into commercial and institutional spaces, the Dayton series is composed of a selection of interchangeable frames and table tops inspired by mathematical lines and planes.
Consisting of two wire frames, for an end table and a cocktail table, and six different sizes and shaped tops available in Plural Studio’s standard material palette of Solid Surfaces, wood veneers and laminates, Pesso created a platform of 18 occasional tables. With multiple options of finishes for tops, a palette of powder-coated colors on the wireframe, and a variety of scales and shapes, the collection may be specified to meet a variety of workplace needs.
"Plural supports human beings being human– wherever they work, wait, or wonder," said Anthony Brandt, Plural Studio's Partner and CEO. “David Allan Pesso understood our brand and objective as a company perfectly, to create a truly versatile collection with the Dayton series."
Working within Plural Studio’s request for a high-design and cost-conscious table program, which required a minimal number of unique components, Pesso designed Dayton to be highly functional. Suitable for high-use interiors, including healthcare, corporate, higher education, and hospitality, the surfaces are easily cleanable. Keeping practicality in mind, the series is lightweight and easily pulled up for use as an impromptu work surface or rearranged into clusters.
"Clean, minimalist, and modern, Dayton is a meaningful, specifiable, cost-conscious, and high-design occasional table platform," said Pesso. He adds, “I think that's going to catch people's imagination and eye— it's a very elegant and refined series.”
