In modern production, sustainable development is the number one challenge. Manufacturers have a kind of obligation to create products that are durable, recyclable and environmentally friendly. The Danish brand Eva Solo tries to select the best materials, taking into account their quality, durability and positive impact on responsible production.
The Savoye table collection is a perfect example of this. It includes an elegant collection of coffee and side tables in various sizes and designs. With careful consideration of the properties of materials, production processes and their impact on the environment, these tables have been developed as a sustainable and ecological alternative that does not sacrifice quality and aesthetics.
Savoye table tops are made of FSC® certified oak wood or 100 percent natural ceramics. Both materials were chosen for their environmental friendliness, durability and exclusive appearance. The legs and frame of the tables are made of recycled aluminum, which gives the tables a modern and light look.
Rene Hougaard, designer of the Savoye collection, has gained a reputation as one of the most trusted and sought-after furniture designers in Scandinavia. Through its innovative design studio, ARDE Design Studio, it takes a unique, holistic approach to the design process, taking into account the entire product value chain.
The Savoye collection was inspired by an iconic source: Villa Savoye. This building, designed by the architect Le Corbusier and located on the outskirts of Paris, is considered one of the most important achievements of modernist architecture of the 20th century and a definitive example of the International Style.
In homage to the functionalism of Villa Savoye, Hougaard designed a table that combines aesthetics, function and structure. The Savoye collection is characterized by modularity. Whether you're looking for a single coffee table, multiple side tables, or an intricate arrangement for your living room, the Savoye collection offers the flexibility to create unique arrangements tailored to your specific needs.
Savoye tables are available in various sizes and shapes. The common feature of the tables is the careful selection of materials and a rounded, organic design. Thanks to their carefully balanced and subdued design, Savoye tables bring a harmonious and timeless atmosphere to any interior.
Savoye solid oak table tops are FSC® certified. This is a guarantee that the wood comes from responsibly managed forests. Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) is an international, non-profit organization that cares for the natural regeneration of forests and the protection of their flora and fauna.
FSC® certification contributes to 14 of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals, including those related to climate action, biodiversity conservation and social responsibility. The principles resulting from the certification ensure that forest workers receive appropriate training, protective equipment and fair wages.
FSC® certification means production in accordance with rigorous standards. This contributes to the long-term health and growth of forests. By choosing an FSC® certified product, such as Eva Solo Savoye tables, you support sustainable forest management that respects both the environment and its communities.
If you are looking for a countertop made of organic materials that are not wood, marble or granite, ceramic countertops are the obvious choice.
Ceramic countertops are made from a combination of minerals including sand, feldspar, clay and natural color pigments. The mixture is pressed and fired at a temperature of approximately 1,200 degrees Celsius. All minerals used are 100 percent natural and can be recycled without the addition of glue or other synthetic components.
Ceramic countertops from the Eva Solo Savoye collection are not only beautiful and natural, but also one of the most durable on the market. The decorative surface is resistant to scratches and high temperatures, resistant to acids and easy to clean and maintain - the table can usually be cleaned with ordinary soap and water.
The legs and frames of Savoye tables are made of aluminum - a metal that adds value to the product both in use and in recycling. Aluminum combines low weight with high strength and excellent corrosion resistance, resulting in lightweight, solid table frames with a long service life.
Only recycled aluminum is used to produce Savoye tables. The recycled material is as strong and durable as virgin aluminum, but has significantly better CO2 efficiency.
When aluminum is recycled by remelting, 95 percent of the energy needed to produce new primary metal is saved. This significantly reduces the climate impact associated with primary production.
By choosing recycled aluminum, we not only save energy, but also protect the planet's limited resources. Aluminum can be remelted many times without losing strength or durability. In fact, as much as 75% of all aluminum ever produced is still used today.
