Massimo Morozzi Modular “Tangram” Dining Table by Cassina — Set of 9
A rare and striking set of nine modular multi-colour timber tables from the Tangram series, designed by Massimo Morozzi for Cassina in the early 1980s.
Taking its name and conceptual inspiration from the traditional Chinese tangram puzzle, this extraordinary set comprises nine distinct geometric modules that can be configured into numerous arrangements — from an expansive dining table to smaller occasional or display tables. Sculptural and playful in both colour and form, the design captures the bold experimentation and expressive character of postmodern Italian design.

Design Story
Founded in 1927 in Meda by brothers Cesare and Umberto Cassina, the company originally produced handcrafted wooden furniture before evolving into a pioneer of industrial design in postwar Italy. As modern architecture began reshaping Europe, Cassina became one of the first companies to bridge artisanal tradition with large scale modern production.
The company gained international recognition through collaborations with legendary architects and designers including Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand. Their furniture designs, particularly the LC4 Chaise Longue and the LC2 Chair, became defining symbols of modernist interiors.
Unlike many furniture brands focused purely on decoration, Cassina approached furniture as part of a broader architectural vision. Its pieces emphasized proportion, innovation, and material quality while maintaining the elegance and refinement associated with Italian craftsmanship.
Over the decades, Cassina also became known for preserving design history through its meticulous production of modernist classics alongside collaborations with contemporary designers. This balance between heritage and innovation helped establish the company as a cornerstone of global design culture.
Today, Cassina furniture is found in luxury homes, galleries, and architect designed interiors around the world. Its legacy reflects the enduring influence of Italian modernism: sophisticated, intellectual, and timeless.
