If only this coffee table could make some noise

We, of course, like what’s on the coffee table. But in this case, Stefano Notargiacomo’s design coffee table is what caught our eye. Is there a way to fire it up?

Italian designer Stefano Notargiacomo has a habit of creating design elements from used parts. Light sets from brake callipers, for instance. And this: a coffee table built up around the exhaust manifold of a Ferrari 308. These twists and curves are where the symphony of the Ferrari V8 was shaped. It is undeniably an object of mechanical beauty. The only improvement we see would be the upgrade towards a twelve-cylinder with Maranello origins.

Ferrari script

Added to that is the Ferrari script on the methacrylate base, also taken from a production car at the end of its life. The glass surface of the table measures 50×70 centimetre. Notargiacomo will produce it on special order. Expect a price tag of around €4200 ($4330).
