Description
The minimalist lines that outline the table and its tapered legs characterise its sophisticated elegance, creating a perfect equilibrium between dynamism and absolute lightness. A high-tech design with a unique look, underlined by the pictorial veining effect of the surface in eucalyptus.
The Penthouse table combines minimalist appeal and reassuring aesthetics, presenting classic-modern reminiscences with a contemporary feel.
It is the result of a high-tech design which pairs the structure, characterized by slightly retro, flared cast aluminium legs with a thin eucalyptus wood top sporting a matt finish, which stands out due to the natural flamed effect of the veining.
The colour of the legs in polished Pewter and the choice of a textured, pictorial wood define its sophisticated elegance, revealing an apparently minimalist, linear design. The tapered leg, also featured on the outdoor Terrace table designed by Rodolfo Dordoni, endows the piece with dynamism and a sensation of absolute lightness.
The definition of a table with the same design for both indoor and outdoor environments, but with materials and finishes that vary according to their use, further reinforces the concept behind the design.

Rodolfo Dordoni
The strategic collaboration between Minotti and Rodolfo Dordoni, architect and designer from Milan, began back in 1997.
Rationalist architect and professional with a multi-faceted personality, Rodolfo Dordoni met Renato and Roberto Minotti towards the end of the nineties. The Minotti brothers immediately considered Rodolfo Dordoni’s cultural background, professional experience and sensitivity as an interior decorator the ideal basis for forging a strong relationship. The challenge that faced them was to create a new vision of the company.
So, in 1997, Rodolfo Dordoni presented his first collection of seats, tables and coffee tables, including Suitcase, the iconic cubic armchair freely inspired by the world of fashion and luggage-making. A successful design, rigorous and non-conventional, which marked the beginning of a consolidated relationship that has spanned more than twenty years and shows no signs of slowing down.
The next year, in 1998, he was nominated Art Director and coordinator of all the company’s collections. This marked a turning point that launched him on a pathway of continuous research, guided by the values of coherence, determination, passion and enthusiasm. Over the years, it led to the definition of a full range for the home, designed for both indoor and outdoor environments and for Hospitality spaces, fully interpreting the concept of “collection” and “lifestyle”.
Year after year, collection after collection, this collaboration has played a part in reinforcing the brand identity and in giving the collections a feel of exclusivity, carrying a strong message of quality and fine Italian craftsmanship all round the world, by innovating and creating continuity.
The collaboration has also extended to designing the stands for the various editions of the Salone del Mobile in Milan and Shanghai and the fair in Cologne, as well as the creation of spaces such as the Minotti New York flagship store, opened in 2010, and the company showroom installed in the headquarters in Meda in 2012.
His many iconic indoor and outdoor furniture designs created since he began working with the company over 20 years ago have recently been joined by some new additions - the Connery and Blazer indoor and the Sunray outdoor seating systems - all characterised by pure volumes, sharp geometries and a haute couture approach to sartorial craftsmanship - along with a myriad of furnishing solutions, small furniture and accessories.
