While browsing Flickr, I found out that the table I have seen at Amsterdam modern was this 1960′s “Astro” round glass top coffee table made by G Plan, a British furniture company. G Plan was launched in 1952 carrying over ever changing styles since then.

As soon as I discovered the brand, I purchased their illustrated history book that was published in 2007 from UK Amazon (now they are available here). “Catching the trend for vintage collecting, this book is an illustrated history of mass market furniture from the 1950s to the 1970s, complete with retro illustrations and advertising. With a focus on UK manufacturers, the most notable of which was G-Plan, the content will appeal to anyone with an interest in the design of those times. An artwork in itself, the book sets its design in he social and cultural context of the period and has a truly original feel.”

I am not crazy about their current furniture design, but if you are interested in their vintage ones, check out ebay or Amsterdam modern.
