Treflo Coffee Table
Made by Cassina
Designed by Erwan & Ronan Bouroullec
The Treflo Coffee Table reconciles apparent simplicity with hidden complexity. Its base, formed from rigid polyurethane enriched with polyols derived from biological sources, achieves fluid, sinuous curves that belie the precision of the internal metal structure and ballast beneath.
Erwan and Ronan Bouroullec have long worked at the intersection of organic form and industrial process. Treflo distills that sensibility into a low, grounded object whose silhouette reads as effortless but is the product of considerable structural choreography.
The palette runs deep: Comfort, Midnight Blue, Pinot Noir, Brick, and Dark Green, each offered in matte or glossy lacquer. Every color reads differently depending on finish, light, and the hour of day. The top is available in extra-clear thermoformed tempered glass, back-lacquered with a rounded edge and matte black MDF under-top, or in matte or glossy lacquered MDF.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is bio-sourced polyurethane and why does Cassina use it?
Bio-sourced polyurethane incorporates polyols derived from biological rather than purely petrochemical sources, reducing the product's reliance on fossil-based inputs. Cassina uses it in the Treflo base because it can be molded into the fluid, complex curves the Bouroullecs designed while meeting the brand's commitments to more responsible material sourcing.
How does the glass top differ from the MDF top on the Treflo?
The glass top is extra-clear thermoformed tempered glass, back-lacquered with a rounded edge and a matte black MDF under-top that gives it depth and warmth from below. The MDF top, available in matte or glossy lacquer, offers a more monolithic, color-unified appearance and a softer surface character.
Does the finish choice affect how the color reads on the Treflo?
Yes, significantly. A matte lacquer absorbs light and renders color as flatter and more saturated, while a glossy finish creates reflections that shift the perceived tone depending on the surrounding light. Deep colors like Midnight Blue and Pinot Noir are particularly sensitive to this distinction.
Who are Erwan and Ronan Bouroullec?
Erwan and Ronan Bouroullec are French brothers whose studio, based in Paris, has produced influential work across furniture, lighting, textiles, and public installations since the late 1990s. Their practice is characterized by a precise, pared-back formal language that often conceals structural and material complexity beneath calm, organic exteriors.
Is the Treflo Coffee Table structurally stable given its curved base?
The base integrates an internal black painted metal structure and ballast that provide rigidity and stability, counterbalancing the visual lightness of the curved polyurethane form. The combination of the metal armature and ballast ensures the table sits firmly without the base rocking or flexing under normal use.
