Sans Tables by Simone Viola
A modest, uncomplicated design that enhances any environment. The Sans collection is composed of two elegantly simple and minimalist tables. The refined aesthetic of the Sans tables was made possible by using only two solid steel rods for the base and one metal plate for the top. All pieces are welded together, making a monoblock piece. Using solid steel rods and a steel plate together yields a pure minimalist look that blends any ambiance fluently, also creates an absolutely strong table. Depending on the angle, you can view different letters of the alphabet formed by the steel wire legs of these tables. What you see are plain sans-serif letters. The defining characteristic of Sans is the gracefully rounded half-circle part of the base. This semicircle doubles as a handle and increases this table's portability.
Grab it and move around the home or office conveniently, wherever you need. Ideal for indoor-outdoor living. Whether you desire to use your tables out on the patio or indoor as a coffee table, Sans is versatile enough to do it all effortlessly. The tables are available in two different sizes and several standard colors, special order colors available upon request.

Simone Viola
Simone Viola was born in Mendrisio, Switzerland, in 1985. He studied industrial design in Milan and soon began to collaborate with prominent Italian and international architecture and design studios. In 2011, these experiences led him to open his own studio in Switzerland, specializing in industrial design and interiors. The décor sector became his main area of interest and experimentation, and his personal tastes began to emerge: a strong inclination towards clean lines and artisan workmanship.
His efforts are mainly devoted to an ongoing search for functional simplicity, in which design becomes the expression of a personal style while serving a practical purpose. This confluence gives rise to minimalist, ergonomic shapes, intended to decorate living spaces in a recognizable manner. To this end, Simone Viola personally oversees all the stages of creation and production, scrupulously overseeing every detail in the entire process.
LAMINIMAL
Laminimal is a furniture design company based in Southern California, newly created with an intention to combine the influential and minimalist character of Swiss design aesthetic with the effortlessly cool vibes of Los Angeles, without a trace of superficiality. The aim of this collaboration between Swiss designer Simone Viola and American entrepreneur Joseph Boyraz is to design and create furniture and accessories which embody minimalistic simplicity while well-thought-out details enhance the overall functionality of the design.
Laminimal is the present-day interpretation of the California Cool design movement.
Since the early twentieth century, California in general and Los Angeles with surrounding areas, in particular, has been the vanguard of the contemporary lifestyle. Angelenos realized that advanced technology and innovative use of new materials should give birth to a fresh interpretation of forms in architecture as well as consumer products. From iconic residences to extraordinary public buildings, from futuristic Googie design roadside signages to eye-popping art installations Los Angeles has become a mecca for Modernism.
As Angelenos, we acknowledge this priceless modern heritage and reinterpreted it in our designs. The LA designers who preceded us in the mid-century were pioneers in exploring new materials and forms of their times. At Laminimal we aspire to explore today’s new forms and materials of the 21st century and continue the modernist legacy.
