The most fundamental life support structure…A solid, linear professional table top, resting on four sturdy pillar-like legs. Palette represents the modernarchetype of a work and conference table atwhich information is collected, tasks are allo- cated and decisions are taken.Yet, Palette is more than an impressive tablewith finely honed design furniture that projects highquality and prestige due to reduction to essentials: a leg can be released and moved along totake another table top with one swift movement. To create, extend or divide tableconfigurations, as methods and numbers ofparticipants require.Palette is an excellent example of consistentstandardization too: just one single, rectangu-lar table top form and one type of table legallow almost limitless scope for application. From a double contemporary workstation to a large confer- ence configuration of any size.The rigid blockboard tops allow a tableconstruction that does not require a reinforcing frame. This not only creates ample legroom butalso permits table tops not required ataparticular time to be stacked compactly.

To extend the table surface,simplyrelease the bayonet catch onthe underside of the table top,move the leg along two pins,position thesecond table top onthe two remaining pins and locktightly.
