The Low Table picks up on the design and materials of the Ring Table: the terrazzo top is supported by a filigree metal frame. Here, too, a ring acts as a central element that elegantly brings the table legs and table top together. The metal struts result in a butterfly-shaped pattern. As a striking detail, the central ring characterizes the entire product portfolio of Acapulco Design. Olivia Herms, longstanding project manager at Konstantin Grcic, also designed the dining table with a ring as a defining stylistic element, which also enables space-saving transport and easy assembly. Benjamin Caja describes the design idea: "The low table further expands the area of ​​application of the iconic Acapulco design: it is a companion for free-standing armchairs or spacious seating arrangements". “Originally designed for the vibrant beach life, from the beginning I wanted to develop the Acapulco design for an international audience. It can be integrated into our furnishing worlds in many ways – indoors and outdoors – and always sparks a dialogue. Because everyone knows a story about Acapulco.” In its terrazzo variants, the low table either sets an exciting accent or harmoniously complements the existing interior. "Like the Ring Table, it invites you to gather with friends for a social gathering."

The iconic design, originally from the Mexican seaside resort of Acapulco, was further developed by the Munich company Acapulco Design within an entire collection series. A dining chair was added to the Original Acapulco Chair collection in 2017. In cooperation with the Munich design studio HANSANDFRANZ, the AD-1 cantilever model was created on the basis of the Acapulco Chair. The steel frame with the inner ring and the characteristic lacing also set the design principle here. Benjamin Caja thus succeeded in modifying the chair design for sitting upright at the table. Finally, two years later, the AD-4 Dining Chair followed, in which the seat shell is supported by four legs. In the Ring Table, the design language of the iconic lounge chair is taken up again and reinterpreted. "The table is a natural evolution of the Acapulco Chair and directly inspired by its delicate and complex geometries," explains Olivia Herms. "With the low table, we have consistently continued the design."

ABOUT ACAPULCO DESIGN

Showing Mexican design and craftsmanship in their unbroken vitality - according to this credo, Benjamin Caja founded the label Acapulco Design in Munich in 2015. The Acapulco Chair from the 1950s became a symbol of the pulsating lifestyle in Mexico and became the brand's first piece in the collection. Since then, the German-Croatian entrepreneur Caja has continued to develop the collection. In cooperation with German designers, a group of contemporary pieces of furniture has been created, which takes up the design language of the iconic lounge chair and reinterprets it.
