Designed by award-winning Swedish designer Monica Förster, the Kern table collection represents a groundbreaking fusion of sustainability and sculptural beauty. Introduced in 2025, Kern is the first collection from a major design brand to utilize OUTT, a revolutionary material composed of 85% upcycled marble waste from Italian quarries. Each Kern table is a unique sculptural object, featuring hand-broken corners that ensure no two pieces are identical. The brutalist-inspired forms are softened through artisanal finishing, while the brushed surfaces emphasize texture and invite tactile engagement. The collection includes two side table heights and a coffee table, all available in three sophisticated terracotta finishes—white, grey, and brown. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, these tables bring warmth and sculptural presence to diverse settings.
