The Design
About Tau Murano 커피 테이블
타우 무라노(Tau Murano)는 얇은 금속 밴드로 결합된 두 개의 블로운 글라스 요소로 이루어진 작은 커피 테이블이다. 투톤 디자인은 테이블에 부드러운 형태와 빛나는 외관을 부여한다. 소다석회 유리는 무라노의 오랜 전통에 따라 몰드에 불어 성형되며, 이후 장인 유리 공예가들의 손으로 재단되고 연마된다. 가장 큰 과제는 깨지기 쉬운 유리의 가벼움을 유지하면서도 안정적이고 신뢰할 수 있는 구조를 만드는 것이었다. 타우 무라노는 커피 테이블, 침대 옆 사이드 테이블, 또는 어떤 공간에서든 장식적인 오브제로 활용될 수 있다.

- Unique Properties
- This coffee table features two blown glass elements joined by a delicate metal frame. This creates a two-tone design with a soft shape and luminous feel. Named Tau Murano, it has a distinctive design that is as elegant as it is unique. The table is handcrafted using traditional Venetian glassblowing techniques passed down for generations. Tau Murano adds beauty and wonder to any environment through its one-of-a-kind craftsmanship.

- Production Technology
- The soda-lime glass is blown on a mold after collecting the glass mass in a melting furnace as per ancient Murano tradition. The glass is then cut and ground, and the base and top are joined by a thin metal band.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was designing a structure that was sturdy and reliable enough to contrast a fragile material such as blown glass, yet still retain the characteristic lightness and brightness of the material.
- Research
- Reflex has always worked with blown glass and has developed over the years a certain competence.
However, as it is a very complex material and requires artisanal workmanship, many factors must be considered when designing.
It was crucial to rely on a team of master glassmakers who worked on the project from the beginning and created numerous prototypes before settling on the final model. - Inspiration
- Tau Murano was born from the long collaboration between Reflex and the masters who preserve the ancient traditions of Venetian glass art. It combines a coffee table and a decorative object, creating an elegant and nostalgic vibe that can be used to beautify any environment, without being restricted to a specific area of the house.
- Project Duration
- The project was presented at the Salone del Mobile 2023
- Operation Flow
- Tau Murano can serve various functions in the home. It works well as a coffee table, bringing color to living areas. Tau Murano also makes a pleasant reading nook. Bedside tables are another option. For a focal point place one in the center of a room to encourage conversation.
