Frankl was an Austrian-American architect and designer, best known for his groundbreaking contribution to modernist furniture design in the 1920s and 1930s. His work combined functionality and aesthetics, helping to shape the American modernist style. Today, Frankl is considered one of the most influential designers to have worked in the United States.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"amoeba-table","title":"Amoeba Coffee Table","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePaul Frankl designed the Amoeba Table (also called \"Model no. 5005\" and the “Cloud Table”) for the Michigan-based Johnson Furniture Company in the late 1940s. The low, cloud-shaped table was marketed as a \"cocktail table,\" a modernized version of the more classic coffee table.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe biomorphic form of the Amoeba Table was likely inspired by Alvar Aalto, Kaare Klint and other Scandinavian designers, but Frankl added his own eccentric ideas, including a cork top and outward-facing legs, which not only gave the table greater stability but also broke with conventional geometry. The result is one of the modernist icons of the mid-century, a design object that is informal and practical, and completely in tune with the times.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Amoeba Table is undoubtedly one of Paul T. Frankl's masterpieces, an enduring and visually commanding design. The new production of the table is according to the original design and has been authorized by Paul T. Frankl's heirs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Frankl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50676499906866,"sku":"ATH-NO--12557","price":5900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1343\/6503\/files\/FABI_SHOOT_724151.jpg?v=1771714817"}],"url":"https:\/\/comingsoonnewyork.mom\/collections\/vendor-paul-frankl.oembed","provider":"Coming Soon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
