The MARC coffee table is a cross between a classic coffee table and a useful magazine holder. It combines the two to great effect, creating a clean and minimalist piece of furniture that is aesthetically pleasing and incredibly functional. Interestingly, the slim cross bars used to create the rack portion of the MARC coffee table makes it look like a tweaked clothing rack.
Created by Barcelona-based design studio Gauzak for Spanish furniture manufacturer Quattria, the MARC coffee table is made out of locally sourced materials. It has been fashioned out of powder coated steel and a tempered glass surface that has been painted to match the color of the steel. The MARC coffee table is available in three different hues: red, white and black. The glass top slides smoothly over the top of the table.
