Introduction
The 'Love Me, Love Me Not' collection is a series of four tables designed by Michael Anastassiades in collaboration with Salvatori. The collection explores the concept of lightening the traditional table structure using marble, a typically heavy material.

Collection Overview
The collection includes four tables: a substantial rectangular dining table, a square coffee table, a modest-sized round dining table, and a small round side table. Each table features a simple marble surface with a square cut edge, varying in thickness from four centimeters for the dining table to two centimeters for the others.

Design and Structure
The innovative design focuses on the table legs, which are shaped like 'petals'. This design minimizes the physical volume and creates an unexpected visual effect. The legs fit snugly into the corners of the square and rectangular tables, allowing diners to sit close without discomfort. For the circular tables, the legs are oriented to provide stability with minimal support.

Materials
Each table is crafted from a different type of marble, chosen for its unique markings and potential for monumentality. The dining table uses Rouge du Roi marble, the round dining table features Rosa Portogallo marble, the coffee table is made from Noir Saint Laurent, and the side table uses Verde Alpi marble.

Concept and Aesthetic
Michael Anastassiades describes the tables as an 'illusory deviation from the archetype', blending heaviness with lightness and monumentality with playfulness. The collection represents a harmonious clash of these elements, creating a distinctive and functional design.

Conclusion
The 'Love Me, Love Me Not' collection is a testament to the collaboration between Salvatori and Michael Anastassiades, showcasing innovative design and the beauty of natural marble.
