"Form is not the aim of our work. It is the result," wrote Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Mies van der Rohe adhered to the philosophy of "no trivial decoration," where every piece had a clear function--no unnecessary frills. The formal and functional Barcelona Table reflects this pure and simple design concept.
