ad hoc solitaires
Design Antonio Citterio,
2010
Ad Hoc Solitaires offer a selection of configurable conference and visitor tables that complement the related modular furniture system for workstations. Ad Hoc conference tables come in various sizes, shapes and surface materials. They can be equipped with power and data connections and, like the workstations, are available in both sitting and standing heights. The visitor tables – with applications ranging from small side tables in individual offices to mass furnishings for large meeting spaces and public areas – serve as a practical addition and are equipped with glides or castors. Depending on the intended duration of meetings and the desired number of participants, high or low tables can be selected with tops in four different shapes and sizes. In addition to the surface options available for Ad Hoc workstations, Ad Hoc Solitaires are also produced in the extremely durable material of polymer concrete.

Italian designer Antonio Citterio (b. 1950) still lives and works in Milan since graduating in architecture from the Politcenico di Milano. He has made designs for many manufacturers, including : Ansorg, B&B Italia, Flexform, Flos, Hackman, Iittala, Hansgrohe, Inda, Pozzi e Ginori, Kartell, Arclinea and Vitra. He operates his entirely own brand known for skilled craftsmanship in wood processing, Maxalto, under B&B Italia. The first Maxalto store opened in Paris, followed by Chicago and Miami. The company received new attention after appearing in the James Bond film Quantum of Solace. Citterio’s other work includes construction in Italy and abroad, as well as leading conferences and lectures.
Vitra is a Swiss company dedicated to improving the quality of homes, offices and public spaces through the power of design. Following in the tradition of Charles & Ray Eames, who have influenced Vitra’s approach to sustainability in many ways, product longevity is central to the company’s contribution to sustainable development; short-lived styling is avoided at all costs. This can be seen most clearly in the classical pieces of furniture that have been used for decades, had several owners and have then even ended up as a part of a collection.
