Magazine Table

Designed by Jens Risom in 1949, the Magazine Table is a masterclass in functional simplicity. Originally featured in the first comprehensive Risom catalog under the slogan “Furniture with a signature,” the design reflects the designer’s belief that great furniture should combine practicality, comfort, and timeless style. More than seventy years later, it remains a striking example of Scandinavian-inspired modern design. Defined by its sculptural silhouette, this table transforms everyday storage into an architectural statement. Sweeping diagonal lines, softly rounded cut-outs, and carefully considered curves create a distinctive form that feels both light and substantial. Designed to keep books, magazines, newspapers, and journals within easy reach, the table offers a practical solution while serving as a beautiful accent piece in its own right.
