The concept behind Jasper Morrison's "Variation" series originated⛎ in Tokyo, where the designer came across an ingenious table of Korean origin in an artisanal shop that, years later, inspired him to create systems of easily adjustable and modular tables. The present variation features three stackable elements, whose marble body has been hollowed out and filled with aluminum to reduce weight and improve their overall stability. Limited editions of the forms were made in both oak and Carrara marble and were first introduced at Galerie kreo in 2005.
