Brushed Light Oak

Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby first project for B&B Italia was Tobi-Ishi, a round dining table clearly inspired by Zen. The design duo are great enthusiasts of Japanese art and culture and the name and concept for this table came from the smooth stones (tobi-ishi) used as ornaments in traditional Japanese Zen gardens. The overhang of the table and the vertical trapezoidal bases set at right angles generate an essential sculptural figure that appears to change shape depending on the point of observation. The search for equilibrium between shapes and materials is expressed in the Tobi-Ishi table through the many materials: cement grout, lacquered finish, marble, and oak for the low table.

Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby

British born Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby founded their studio in 1996 after graduating with Masters in Architecture from London's Royal College of Art. Inspired by the model making skills learnt during their studies, much of their early work is characterized by the folding and shaping of sheet material, while the use of colour has been a starting point for much of their work. Today, their work is held in permanent collections across the world, and they have won numerous design awards for their innovative ideas and considered products. Barber and Osgerby's unique style has led to the development of collections for the world's top manufacturers, including Cappellini, Vitra, B&B Italia, Flos and Established & Sons.
