For Gianfranco Frattini, simplicity was never simple.
His Kyoto table began far from Italy, its idea taking shape in the workshops of Japan during a formative journey with master cabinetmaker Pierluigi Ghianda.
Ultimately born in 1974, this unique piece is the result of a deep study of wood and its possibilities: a seamless interlocking pattern, where every joint strengthens both structure and meaning. An object reduced to its essence, yet impossible to replicate without such mastery.
Today, Kyoto stands as a manifesto of craftsmanship, part of the permanent collection at Triennale Milano.
