TZ 75 Low Table

The TZ 75 Coffee Table, designed by Swiss architect and designer Werner Blaser in 1963, is a timeless icon that has been reintroduced into the Spectrum collection. Blaser was known for his minimalist designs, which strike a perfect balance between form and function, and the TZ 75 is an excellent example of this, The coffee table is characterized by an elegant glass top that rests on a curved base made of beech plywood, finished with oak veneer. This base, available in natural or black stained, highlights Blaser’s ability to create a powerful and refined appearance using simple materials. The glass tabletop enhances this sense of lightness and transparency, allowing the table to fit effortlessly into any interior without dominating the space. With the return of the TZ 75 to the Spectrum collection, one of Blaser’s most iconic designs is once again available to design enthusiasts who value quality, simplicity, and durability.

Werner Blaser (1924 – 2019), born in Basel, was an influential Swiss architect and designer who gained worldwide recognition for his minimalist and functional approach to design. Blaser studied at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago and was strongly influenced throughout his career by Japanese architecture, which he encountered during his travels in the 1950s. These influences are clearly visible in his work, which often displays an elegant combination of simplicity, refined forms, and a deep appreciation for the materials used.

Blaser was a student of Alvar Aalto and worked closely with Mies van der Rohe for a long time. He was a highly sought-after architect, publisher, and curator, and his body of work ranged from architectural masterpieces to distinctive furniture design. For Spectrum, Blaser designed several iconic pieces of furniture characterized by their timeless appeal and remarkable construction. One of these designs is the TZ 75 coffee table, which has recently been reintroduced into Spectrum’s collection. The TZ 75, with its clean lines and subtle proportions, embodies Blaser’s philosophy of functionality and aesthetics in perfect harmony. It is a design that not only stands the test of time but also remains a stunning feature in contemporary interiors.
