Bare Essentials

French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupery once said: ”Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupery once said: ”Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” The Panton Wire exemplifies this “less is more” approach perfectly, with its steel wire frame and surprising versatility. It can be used as a bedside table, grouped to form a coffee table, hung on the wall, or stacked to act as room dividers. 

The Panton Wire, designed by Verner Panton, comes in chrome-plated steel and is lacquered in the colours Black, Snow, and Moulin Rouge. A limited-edition gold version is also available. 

The Panton Wire can be found at Danish Design Co, #06-03 Century Warehouse, 100E Pasir Panjang Road, tel: 6270-8483.
