Mini event Horizon marc newsonLot Description
MARC NEWSON (b. 1963) 
'Mini Event Horizon' A Prototype Lacquered Wood and Metal Side Table, designed 1993
executed by Cappellini 
22¾ in. (58 cm.) high, 19¼ in. (49 cm.) wide, 15¾ in. (40 cm.) deep
impressed Mini Event Horizon Table Marc Newson 1994 Cappellini 
Lot Notes
cf. C. L. Morgan, Marc Newson, New York, 2001, pp. 182-183.
A. Rawsthorn, Marc Newson, London, 1999, pp. 88-89, 214.

The present prototype 'Mini Event Horizon' table and another one in a variant black and white color scheme are the only two extant tables of this model. After executing the prototypes, Capppellini never actually put the design into production. Marc Newson conceived the 'Mini Event Horizon' as a related piece to the 'Event Horizon' table from 1992.
