Little Friend side table

Kasper Salto, 2005

The multi-purpose table Little Friend designed by Kasper Salto is a small yet significant piece of furniture in the history of Fritz Hansen. The ground- breaking design was the result of a series of think tanks’ ideas of new ways of working and living. Little Friend is a flexible, multifunctional and portable solution to the challenges of modern minimalistic working and living. It is perfect for your laptop as well as your morning coffee.

Little FriendTM is available in two models: A height-adjustable version and a version with fixed height. The button on the top of the height-adjustable model is made of brass, polished and chromed and activates the height adjustment. The top has a cut-out carrier handle.

The table top is available in compact laminate in various colors and veneer. The centre tube on the height adjustable model is a telescope tube: The outer tube is in mirror chromed steel, the inner is in satin matt steel. On the model with fixed height the centre tube is in mirror chromed steel. The three-legged foot and the flange are pressure moulded polished aluminium. Also available with a lacquered base matching the color of the table top made.

In 1989 studying Industrial design at The Danish design school in Copenhagen, and later a semester at Art Center in Switzerland .

The design of the Runner chair started the career of Kasper Salto. The chair was spotted at The SE-design exhibition in 1997 by Bjørn Stegger, the designmanager of the furniture company Fritz Hansen, and it led to a long lasting relation.
