BAGUETTE TABLE
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, 2011
Baguette is a rectangular, large table in two parts. An opaque top rests on a highly resistant yet delicate aluminium base.
We focused our attention on the structure of the project to use the less aluminium material as possible. The effect is visual as it brings an additional graphical feature to the table: the heavy top is only supported by four chopstick-looking feet.
DESIGNER
RONAN & ERWAN BOUROULLEC
“The fundamental role of design is to give shape to culture.”
Ronan Bouroullec (born in 1971) and Erwan Bouroullec (born in 1976) have been working together for more than twenty years now. Their collaboration is a permanent dialogue, nourished by their distinct personalities and a shared notion of diligence, with the intention to achieve greater balance and refinement.
In 1997, they presented their Disintegrated Kitchen at the Salon du Meuble in Paris, where it was spotted by Giulio Cappellini, who gave them their first industrial design commissions. The Bouroullecs have been working with Magis since 2004, designing three complete furniture collections – Striped, Steelwood and Officina – as well as additional projects such as Pila chair, Pilo table, Central and Tambour tables.
These days, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec design for numerous manufacturers, including Magis, Vitra, Kvadrat, Kartell, Established and Sons, Ligne Roset, Axor, Alessi, Issey Miyake, Cappellini, Mattiazzi, Flos, Mutina, Hay and more recently Glas Italia and Iittala.
They also continue to carry out their own experimental activity which is essential to the development of their work at Galerie kreo, Paris, where four exhibitions of their designs were held between 2001 and 2012. They also embark on occasional architectural projects
Voted Designers of the Year at the Salon du Meuble in 2002, their other awards include the Compasso d’Oro won in 2011 for the Steelwood chair they designed for Magis. Several exhibitions have been devoted to their work
In 2012, Phaidon Press published Works, a comprehensive monographic book about Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec. Previously, two other monographs had been published about the Bouroullec brothers’ design work: Ronan et Erwan Bouroullec – Catalogue de Raison (Paris: Images Modernes / kreo, 2002) and Ronan et Erwan Bouroullec (Paris: Phaidon Press, 2003).

PRODUCT CARE
We recommend using a soft rag, either dry or wet. When needed, use ph-balanced soap diluted in water. Do not use abrasive sponges as they may leave scratches. Immediately dry after washing with a soft rag or chamois leather. Never leave water or other liquids to stagnate on the product. Avoid contact with all acidic substances. Small marks or irregularities, which might be visible on the surface of the polished frame, should not be considered as faults, but on the contrary, as technical results of the nature of natural aluminium and its brushing and polishing by hand.
Aluminium is very likely to dull while using. We recommend using specific cleaning products for aluminium. Any marks, signs or irregularities that may be visible on the stone tops are peculiarities of the materials and should not be considered as faults.
We recommend using cleaning products specific for stone materials. Remove stains immediately, as the stone used is a natural material and as such it has not been submitted to any anti-stain treatment. For tops in marble, please avoid using acid products. In case of contact of any acid substance with the marble surface, please remove it immediately. We recommend using water and Marseilles soap for marble cleaning. To remove greasy substances and various stains it is possible to use ammoniacs, denatured alcohol, bicarbonate and hydrogen peroxide.
For tops in wood, we recommend using ph-balanced liquid soap especially formulated for wood, diluted in water. Regular care is therefore necessary to maintain its original appearance.
