Tables & ‘tafelen’ Tafels & ‘tafelen’ Tische & ‘tafelen’ The technical definition of a table is a “flat, slab-like top supported on one or more legs or other supports”. But a table is so much more than that. It is a place. The place where we spend most of the day - some quiet time, intimate time with our significant other or socialising with a group. It is a dynamic place that is used in many different ways. To eat, talk, read, work or relax... A place that can be very formal or where you can just be yourself. A practical, straight table where people sit opposite each other for a meeting or...

‘Tafelen’ Living at the table ‘Tafelen’ Wonen aan tafel ‘Tafelen’ Wohnen am Tisch Our homes and habits are changing. Where we used to have a separate kitchen, dining room and living room, our homes are now becoming completely open with the ‘communal table’ as a central location. Tables are therefore no longer just about more extensive dining, it’s rather all about the activities that take place around the table. It has become the heart of the home - where you eat together, read the newspaper, do your homework, work from home or play a game. Onze woningen en gewoontes zijn verandert. Waar we...

‘Tafelen’ Working at the table ‘Tafelen’ Werken aan tafel ‘Tafelen’ Arbeiten am Tisch 20 Our working environment is changing. In the modern office we no longer simply sit at individual desks, the table has rather become a dynamic workplace where we hold informal discussions with colleagues, where we put down our laptop for flexible working, where we convene for an important meeting or where we enjoy lunch together. The table is the hub around which many working days revolve, where we work, communicate and share knowledge. Ook onze werkomgeving verandert. In het moderne kantoor zitten we...

A visit at the factory by Marianne van Dodewaard A visit at the factory in Winterswijk Arco was founded over one hundred years ago in Winterswijk by the greatgrandfather of Jorre van Ast, who is the current director. It all began as a simple frame-making firm and has now grown into one of the best equipped wood processing factories in the Netherlands. Together with international designers, and a small army of motivated craftsmen, we create a furniture collection that is distributed across the globe. Tables are our greatest strength. Tables for working, eating and drinking at or even for...

A visit at the factory in Winterswijk A visit at the factory in Winterswijk Arco is niet van vandaag of gisteren, maar werd al meer dan honderd jaar geleden in Winterswijk opgericht door de overgrootvader van Jorre van Ast, die nu de leiding heeft. Het begon als een eenvoudige lijstenmakerij, nu is het één van de best geoutilleerde houtverwerkingsfabrieken van Nederland. Arco besteht nicht erst seit heute oder gestern, sondern wurde vor über einhundert Jahren vom Urgroßvater von Jorre van Ast, der jetzt die Firma leitet, in Winterswijk gegründet. Was als einfache Rahmenfabrik begann ist...

“’s Ochtends beginnen we hier. We overleggen, drinken thee, nemen de dag door en dan gaan we aan de slag in de winkel of boven in het kantoor. Maar als ik rustig wil werken, blijf ik lekker hier aan deze tafel zitten in het atelier. Lunchen doen we trouwens ook aan deze tafel – liefst uitgebreid – en er zijn ook al heel wat feestjes aan gevierd.” „Morgens beginnt alles hier. Wir sprechen miteinander, trinken Tee, besprechen den Tag und dann gehen wir im Laden oder oben im Büro an die Arbeit. Aber wenn ich ruhig arbeiten möchte, bleibe ich hier an diesem Tisch im Atelier sitzen. Natürlich...

Marcel Zwaan Amsterdam Lawyer at Bremer & De Zwaan Lawyers “About ten years ago, I was looking for a desk for our new office. I saw the Slim Table at a furniture shop here in Amsterdam and I knew I had found it. It looks like you’re being tricked because it takes up less space than seems possible. I love that. Ten years down the line I still enjoy working at this desk every day.” “Een jaar of tien geleden zocht ik een tafel om aan te werken voor in ons nieuwe kantoor. Ik zag de Slim Table bij een winkel hier in Amsterdam en ik wist meteen dat dit ‘m was. Hij ziet er uit als een truc omdat...
