Töreboda Table

This table is the Swedish architect Sigurd Lewerentz’s last work, completed merely a year before his death in 1975. Although intended for serial production, only a handful of copies were initially made. The design resembles the design for the doors that Lewerentz developed some fifteen years earlier, for the St. Mark’s Church in Björkhagen. Lewerentz’s collaboration with the producer, the glulam manufacturer Töreboda limträ AB, had started at the middle of the century and became intensified during the construction the church. Without the close relationship between the architect and the company, the table would probably never have seen the light of the day. Important support was also provided by Bernt Nyberg, architect and close partner to Lewerentz during the final phase of his life. The original table was made of varnished glulam (pine) and painted steel (tomato red). Tallum provides the original version, and a version made in electro-galvanized steel.

The legs are comprised of three steel bars, Ø14 mm, connected by a circular foot at the base and a square-shaped fixing plate at the top. The 45 mm thick table top, is constructed from glulam wood made from solid pine. The table is delivered unassembled and the legs are fastened to the table top using slotted brass screws.
