'Sbilenco' console by Maison Martin Margiela for Cerruti Baleri

Anyone familiar with the designs of the avant-garde Belgian fashion house Maison Martin Margiela knows that when it comes to the creations marked with four, seemingly-nondescript, diagonal white stitches nothing is quite what it seems. And now, adding to the already impressive portfolio of numerous ready-to-wear, accessories, artisanal, fine jewellery and fragrance collections, the brand famous for its unconventional, outstandingly innovative and frequently ironic aesthetics has collaborated on a series of equally eccentric furniture designs manufactured by the Italian brand Cerruti Baleri.

Aptly named ‘Sbilenco’ – Italian for rickety – the series of ostensibly shaky tables includes an archetypal console and a side- and coffee-tables, all of which are characterised by the surprising, deliberate imperfection of the structure ‘offset by a drawer balancing a clear glass top’. Available in black ash or silver grey tanganika, the ‘Sbilenco’ tables were presented at this year’s Salone del Mobile as part of the ‘Géométries Variables’ installation created by Maison Martin Margiela for Cerruti Balleri.
