Statement-making tables that nod to modern architecture

I Beam Table

Inspired by an I beam, Ward Bennett’s I Beam Tables pay tribute to industrial exactness. Today, production models are cast aluminum and powder-coated. Left bare, it reads as a graphic side table. Topped with glass or stone, it becomes a stately coffee table.

Design Story

Ward Bennett spent his career drawing inspiration from industry. His I Beam Table was the most direct translation of that inspiration. Executed without embellishment or apology for the reference, his original prototype remained in his home.

The powder-coated aluminum base works as a standalone pedestal side table or supports a coffee table surface.

Bennett's inspiration is clear from the form and the name.
