Diana A Side Table
Made by Classicon
Designed by Konstantin Grcic
Konstantin Grcic approached the Diana A as a sculptor approaches raw material: through subtraction. A single sheet of metal, bent and cut with precision, yields a form that reads differently from every angle. The interplay of positive and negative voids was not incidental but the subject of repeated, deliberate reworking.
The result resists easy categorization. It functions as a side table, yet operates as an object of contemplation in its own right. Powder coating in a range of colors allows the Diana A to shift in atmosphere, from industrial restraint to quiet warmth, depending on its context.
The Diana series spans models A through F, each a distinct formal gesture. Combined, they compose a personal visual grammar that can be rearranged freely within a room. Grcic, one of the defining voices in contemporary industrial design, consistently treats process and material as inseparable from form.

Frequently Asked Questions
What material is the Diana A Side Table made from?
The Diana A is formed from a single sheet of steel, bent and cut with precision. It receives a powder-coat finish, which is available in a range of colors and gives the table its characteristic matte surface.
Who designed the ClassiCon Diana series?
The Diana series was designed by Konstantin Grcic, a Munich-based industrial designer whose work is held in the permanent collections of institutions including MoMA in New York and the Vitra Design Museum. The series, produced by ClassiCon, spans models A through F, each a distinct formal study.
Can Diana series tables be used together?
Yes. Each model in the Diana series, A through F, is conceived as an independent formal gesture, but they are also designed to be grouped. The variation in height, silhouette, and proportion between models allows them to function as a cohesive family when arranged together.
Is the Diana A suitable for outdoor use?
The Diana A is designed for interior use. The powder-coat finish offers good durability, but prolonged exposure to moisture or direct sunlight is not recommended and may affect the surface over time.
What design philosophy is behind the Diana A?
Grcic's approach centers on formal reduction: the table is made from one sheet of metal, with its shape determined entirely by cutting and bending rather than by adding material. The voids in the form are as considered as the solid surfaces, giving the object a sculptural quality that changes with viewing angle.
