STRUCTURAL SIMPLICITY — BEAM SIDE TABLE / OAK

The Beam Side Table is designed by Staffan Holm for the Japanese furniture brand Ariake.

The oak version brings natural warmth and grain to a quietly confident piece that works equally well beside a sofa, a bed, or as a standalone accent.

• Construction: Precision-crafted solid oak with a structural, beam-driven form
• Material: Oak — warm, durable, and sustainably sourced
