An industrial design classic since 1965. Dismountable table base in steel tube, a reinterpretation of Egon Eiermann's famous design.

Delivered complete with screws and PVC end caps.

E2 versions are available on request — a version with offset cross-braces for desks maximising lamp space, and a 66 cm height version with adjustable feet.

The E2 base in its standard configuration is perfect for 90 % of tops (solid oak, beech, MDF, weighing between 20 and 30 kg for 200 × 90 cm). For very heavy or very large tops, reinforcements should be planned.

Looking for another style? Daniel Lorch's Sinus trestles offer an alternative in bent steel tube — stackable and minimalist. See all our design table bases.

Height

  • 660 mm(to be combined with adjustable feet)
  • 720 mm(standard office/dining room height)
  • Custom made(contact us)

For use as a desk or dining table, we recommend 720 mm under the tabletop. You can choose a 660 mm base with leveling feet (+25 mm min.), or a 720 mm base without feet. With a tabletop 25-30 mm thick, you will achieve the ideal height of 750 mm.

Depths

  • 600 mm
  • 700 mm
  • 780 mm
  • Custom made(contact us)

We recommend an overhang of approximately 10 cm on each short side of the tabletop. The base depth should therefore be approximately 200 mm less than that of your tabletop.

Width

  • 1000 mm
  • 1350 mm
  • Custom made(contact us)

For optimal use, the tabletop can overhang by 250 to 350 mm on each long side. The width of the base should therefore be 50 to 70 cm less than that of your tabletop. If you plan to have a storage unit under the desk (standard width 450 mm), size it accordingly to position it next to the base. For a dining table with seating at the ends, allow for an overhang of 35 to 50 cm on each side.

Crossbar configuration

  • Offset cross braces(usage – office, work surface)
  • Cross braces in central position(use – dining table, meeting)

Offset crossbars are suitable for tables used on only one side (desk, drawing table). Central crossbars provide optimal legroom on all sides (dining table, meeting table).

Materials

  • Round steel tube: Outer diameter 21.3 mm / Wall thickness 1.75 mm
  • Steel screws included
  • Protective PVC tips

Weight6.0 to 7.5 kg depending on configuration

E2 — A base derived from architectural culture

A structure designed for demanding work environments

The E2 base belongs to the tradition of table systems developed for architectural studios, engineering offices and work environments where functionality takes precedence over decorative effect.
It is designed as a rational, legible and stable structure, able to withstand intensive use while maintaining great formal clarity.

Rather than a fixed object, E2 is conceived as a constructive base, intended to accept a variety of tabletops and to adapt to evolving usage contexts.

A functional and timeless aesthetic

The design of the E2 base rests on a single principle: every visible element is justified by its function.
The structure is intentionally sober, without artifice or superfluous ornament, so that the tabletop and the surrounding space can express themselves freely.

This approach, inherited from European modernism, gives E2 a timeless aesthetic, able to traverse the years without going out of style and to integrate equally into contemporary interiors or more classical settings.

A versatile system, from desk to dining table

Thanks to its different heights and configurations, the E2 base can serve equally as a desk or as a dining table.
It is compatible with a wide variety of tabletops, whether in solid wood, plywood, laminate or composite materials.

This versatility allows E2 to be considered a true system: a structure that evolves over time, accompanying changes in use or layout without losing its formal coherence or its stability.

Historically conceived for professional projects

E2-type structures have historically been used in demanding professional contexts, such as:

  • architecture studios,
  • design studios,
  • schools and creative workshops,
  • coworking spaces.

Their formal sobriety and robustness also allow a natural integration into apartments or houses, where E2 becomes a work table, a dining table or a multipurpose everyday surface.

Compatible with a wide range of tabletops

The geometry of the E2 base ensures excellent stability and reliable handling of vertical loads, including for large-format tabletops.
The structure remains intentionally legible: cross braces, supports and joints contribute directly to the solidity of the whole, without hiding their role.

This constructive legibility reinforces the perception of quality and durability, essential for furniture designed for regular and prolonged use.

Stability, load capacity and ease of use

The E2 base is conceived to accept a wide range of tabletops, whether in solid wood, plywood, laminate or technical materials.
It can also be paired with denser tabletops, provided an appropriate implementation and respect for the recommended dimensions.

This extended compatibility allows E2 to adapt to very different projects, from the individual desk to the meeting table or the dining table.

A durable choice

To choose the E2 base is to choose furniture conceived to last.
Its robust structure, timeless aesthetic and ability to adapt to different uses make it a long-term alternative to standardised or short-lived solutions.

E2 is not a mere base: it is a reliable foundation, conceived to accompany the evolution of spaces and uses while preserving a strong architectural coherence.
