Slice Me Nice Coffee Table: Color Highlights the Structure

With Slice Me Nice, Studiopepe starts with a simple, almost graphic gesture: imagining the object as if it had been cut open to reveal what lies within. From this idea comes a coffee table where the cross-section, thickness, and layering become fully visible. In this 140 x 75 x H 28 cm version, the elongated tray asserts a distinctly architectural presence, while the green edges highlight the geometry like a splash of color.

A graphic design with clean lines

The design of Slice Me Nice plays on simple geometric volumes and a deliberately legible structure. The thick tray rests on wide, flat bases that give the piece a solid, sculptural silhouette. However, the spaces left between the base elements lighten the composition and create a balance between mass and visual lightness.

The tray and bases are made of MDF covered with silver FENIX® laminate. The edges feature a glossy green finish that contrasts with the piece’s light-colored surface. The color thus highlights the contours and accentuates the perception of each dimension.

When Color Reveals the Object

For Arianna Lelli Mami and Chiara Di Pinto, co-founders of Studiopepe, color is not viewed as a finish added to the piece of furniture. It is an integral part of its construction. Visible on the edges, it helps highlight the proportions of Slice Me Nice and directly contributes to its character. It is precisely this way of revealing the Structure that gives meaning to the collection’s name.

Is a 140-cm coffee table suitable for a large sofa?

Yes. At 140 cm long and 75 cm wide, Slice Me Nice is particularly well-suited to a generously sized sofa or a spacious living room arrangement. Its elongated tray offers ample surface area while maintaining a low height of 28 cm, which preserves the room’s proportions and prevents the space from feeling visually cluttered.

How much space should you leave around this coffee table?

It’s best to leave enough space to move comfortably between the table and other furniture. Its 140 x 75 cm dimensions require more clearance than a small end table. It therefore works particularly well in a living room where it can fully occupy the central space in front of the sofa.

Is the silver surface made of metal?

No. The tray and legs are made of MDF covered with silver-colored FENIX® laminate. The metallic look comes from the finish, not from a solid metal construction. This silver surface creates a light visual base against which the shiny green of the edges stands out more intensely.

What colors pair well with green and silver?

This combination works particularly well with neutral tones such as off white, beige, gray, or black. The green edge can also complement colorful textiles, artwork, or accessories. Slice Me Nice then becomes a focal point in the living room without losing the precision of its geometric design.

With Slice Me Nice, Studiopepe turns the structure itself into a decorative statement. Its large silver-plated tray and shiny green edges bring a strong graphic presence to the living room—one that is structured, contemporary, and expressive all at once.
