Saarinen Side Table by Eero Saarinen for Knoll Carrara Black Marble

Eero Saarinen vowed to address the “ugly, confusing, unrestful world” he observed underneath chairs and tables—the so-called "slum of legs." A five-year design investigation led him to the revolutionary Pedestal Collection, including four elegant side tables.
With the Pedestal Collection, Eero Saarinen vowed to eliminate the "slum of legs" found under chairs and tables with four legs. He worked first with hundreds of drawings, which were followed by ¼ scale models. Since the compelling idea was to design chairs that looked good in a room, the model furniture was set up in a scaled model room the size of a doll house.
