Bow Low Table

Generous format, flexible combinations


The Bow Low Tables by Guilherme Torres read like a clear line drawn through time. Their metal-clad bodies nod to the 1970s’ space-age optimism, while the glass or marble tops hover above rounded bases with a deliberate calm. Offered in five sizes, they slide, overlap, and stack into multi-level constellations that turn a living room into a quiet kinetic field, useful surfaces becoming a small architectural landscape. Torres approaches the series with the discipline of an architect and the curiosity of a collector. Born in Londrina and based in São Paulo since founding his studio in 2001, he chases enduring archetypes rather than trends: corners softened, proportions tuned, materials kept honest. He has said the 1970s fascinate him for the way geometry and material met social change; that spirit carries here, where a “perfect match” is always one arrangement away. The Bow family grew into the ClassiCon collection in 2018 and expanded in 2022 with a new rectangular height, extending the vocabulary without disturbing its order.

In practice, the tables adapt to context as easily as they converse with each other, seen in settings from the Mandarin Oriental at Lake Como to the Changi Lounge in Singapore. Recent silver-toned finishes, including polished aluminum, deepen the play with light and surrounding surfaces, lending the group an urban clarity without sacrificing warmth. Arrange two or three, mix marble and glass, and the room gains a sculptural rhythm that stays useful day to night.


Available in three tabletop sizes and four heights. Table natural or burnished solid brass sheet, with clear varnish or solid aluminum sheet, with clear varnish. Tabletop crystal glass, with a mirror finish or black lacquered, or marble tabletop in various versions, polished and impregnated. Height-adjustable felt gliders.

GUILHERME TORRES

Guilherme Torres

Bow Low Table

Brazilian Guilherme Torres is famous for his innovative residential and commercial architectural projects as well as his interiors and furniture designs. In 2001, he founded his own studio, today headquartered in São Paulo. Clear forms, minimalistic details and an expressive yet discrete range of materials are among the trademarks of Torres, who was born in Londrina. The internationally renowned architect considers himself to be a perfectionist who never tires of repeatedly revising and improving things. A quote from the French music duo Daft Punk underscores this attitude not only on the walls of his studio but also on his skin: “Work it harder, Make it better, Do it faster, Makes us stronger.”


MANUFACTURER


CLASSICON

Good furniture is like a good friend: somebody we like to have around and who accompanies us through life, wherever it may take us. We have been producing this kind of furniture since 1990. At the time, ClassiCon emerged from the traditional Vereinigte Werkstätten in Munich.

The licenses for the designs by famous designers of classic modernism, including Eileen Gray, Eckart Muthesius and Otto Blümel, formed the cornerstone for today’s collection. Soon, furniture by contemporary designers such as Sebastian Herkner, Neri & Hu, Konstantin Grcic and Jader Almeida followed. From the beginning, ClassiCon intentionally created a suspenseful relationship between classics and contemporary design. Owner Oliver Holy has had a lasting impact on the family-run company with his passion for design, architecture and art for almost 20 years now. Since mid-2024, he and CEO Timotheus Günak have been jointly managing ClassiCon.

Design, function and quality at the highest level plus a good amount of emotion – this is our vision: furniture design that convinces and accompanies people through their lives, something reliable and beautiful that is used and appreciated and, in the best case, passed down.

How much spirit of departure does a piece of furniture contain? At ClassiCon, you will only find innovative furniture that expresses the courage to depart from familiar ground. Some of the pieces carry big names, and each can look back on a proud design history, sometimes over several decades or even an entire century. Others, however, are only at the beginning of writing their own big stories.

We consider it our task to accompany and enable a multitude of such stories – now and in the future. For this purpose, we are continuously expanding our partner network and engage in intensive dialogs with international designers, often young and unknown.

Local craft businesses that bring design ideas to life through their skills and expertise play an equally important role for us. Through our production methods, we aim to bring this craftsmanship and wealth of experience to light and secure it for the future.

Designs from the ClassiCon collection can be found in museum collections around the world. Rare and precious originals by Eileen Gray, for example, are owned by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the National Museum of Ireland and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. In the meantime, designs by our contemporary designers have found a place in collections: classics of the future are exhibited or archived in various contexts. They represent formal innovation, originality and quality. With each selection, we are delighted about the success of the designers and the confirmation of our work.
