Designed by Europeo as modern home furnishings, the Ice collection features chic cube coffee tables that have the option of being illuminated from within.
All along the matte-finished edges of these cubic consoles, asymmetrical cutouts perforate the walls, creating a trellis-like pattern that is contemporary and also serves a practical purpose. When the light glows from within, intriguing shadows and illuminated shapes emanate from these cutouts, adding another layer of decor to this cool collection.
Useful when entertaining guests for the evening or for movie night, the warm light that comes from the Ice series of cube coffee tables also serves another purpose; it ensures that no one will accidentally bump their shins into these pieces of furniture in the dark.
