Expression of timelessness
This auxiliary table was designed as part of the project to remodel the office of Barcelona Mayor Pasqual Maragall, who oversaw the city’s successful bid for the 1992 Olympics. Like the Diana lamp, the table was named after his wife. Knowing the office would be frequented by a large body of the international community, Correa and the Milá brothers opted for a simple and elegant interior design. In the same spirit as the lamp series, the table exudes a timeless quality. The perfect balance between tradition and modernity, where everything boils down to proportion, with two different table top heights and diameters.

Miguel Milà, industrial and interior designer, inventor and bricoleur, began his career in the 1950s, and soon became a pioneer of Spanish design. To overcome the scarcity of resources at the time, he decided to design his own pieces. He soon began to produce objects at his company Tramo (Trabajos Modestos), and they remain true contemporary classics today. In 2016, the Ministry of
Education and Culture awarded him the Gold Medal for Merit in Fine Arts.
