Picea
The Picea coffee table by Vincent Van Duysen brings sculptural clarity and organic inspiration to the Molteni&C Outdoor Timeout Collection. Crafted entirely from ceramic, its design takes cues from the Arctic spruce tree—Picea—translating natural strength and elegance into a refined outdoor piece.
With a gentle hourglass silhouette, the table offers a stable, widened base and a smooth circular top. This balanced form conveys a subtle sense of movement while maintaining visual simplicity and a unified monochrome presence. The design speaks to quiet sophistication, resisting ornamentation in favor of purity and proportion.

Vincent Van Duysen
Born in 1962 in Lokeren, Belgium, Vincent Van Duysen studied architecture at the Higher Institute of Architecture Sint-Lucas in Ghent. Between 1986 and 1989, he gained valuable experience working in Milan and Brussels before establishing his own studio in Antwerp in 1990. His work seamlessly blends architecture and interior design, creating a symbiotic relationship between the two disciplines. Van Duysen’s designs for furnishings and accessories adopt an architectural mindset, prioritizing spatial awareness and the interaction between interior and exterior environments. By reshaping architectural proportions, he crafts designs that are pure, simple, and timeless, yet retain a tangible solidity and substance.
Van Duysen’s architectural practice has undertaken a broad range of noteworthy projects. These include his first venture into the Belgian hotel industry and an impressive portfolio of international work. Among his key projects are private residences in cities such as London, New York, and Milan, as well as offices in Beirut and Riyadh. He has also designed high-end commercial spaces in global capitals like Paris, Rome, and Hong Kong. Additionally, Van Duysen has collaborated with Molteni&C, creating iconic pieces such as the Gliss Master cabinet system and the Ribbon bed.
