Novamobili HASHI Barrel-shaped table with marble top and solid wood frame

Hashi, a table designed by Matteo Zorzenoni, is a project of great architectural merit that translates the concept of conviviality into a sophisticated balance between fine cabinet-making, attention to detail and Eastern influences.‎ The name itself recalls traditional Japanese bridges – ‘hashi’ means ‘bridge’ in Japanese – evoking a design language in which structural rigour and formal simplicity coexist in perfect harmony.‎ The table stems from this inspiration: an architectural statement capable of connecting material, space and relationship.‎ A distinctive feature of this piece is its sculptural solid wood base, comprising slanted legs joined by a central crossbar that serves as both a technical and expressive detail.‎ The structural joint, deliberately left exposed, celebrates the value of artisanal craftsmanship and precision in construction, transforming function into an aesthetic language.‎ Hashi defines the space with authority without ever weighing it down.‎ Although characterised by substantial volumes, the table conveys a sense of great balance thanks to a careful process of formal subtraction: soft edges, rounded corners and contoured profiles lighten its visual presence and guide the light across the surfaces, amplifying the sense of overall harmony.‎ Its design versatility is further enhanced by the choice of three different materials for the tabletop, each designed to engage with different contexts and aesthetic sensibilities: the authentic warmth of wood, for a refined all-wood interpretation; the contemporary textural quality of Light Stone (stoneware); or the timeless elegance of marble.‎ With Hashi, Novamobili offers a sophisticated synthesis of craftsmanship and design culture: a table that transcends its functional role to become a manifesto of minimalist, textural and profoundly architectural design.‎ Further info from manufacturer on HASHI Novamobili
