Molteni&C

Arc

Designed by Foster + Partners, the Arc table introduces a bold sculptural presence to the outdoor collection of Molteni&C. Inspired by advanced architectural structures, its distinctive base echoes the load-bearing forms seen in modern construction, while its all-cement finish enhances its monumental character.

Moulded in a single piece from a special lightweight cement infused with fibres and pigments, Arc achieves both structural strength and visual lightness. Despite its solid appearance, the material’s low specific weight allows for complex, curved forms that defy traditional cement construction. Its anthracite tone and monomaterial composition give it a monochromatic purity, ideal for minimal, high-impact outdoor spaces.

Arc is not only an aesthetic statement but also a sustainable one: its production involves low environmental impact processes and results in a fully recyclable product. Available in a single size, Arc offers a refined yet powerful outdoor dining solution with architectural depth and ecological intent.
