Dress it up or down. Lacquer it, leave it in a natural wood, perhaps enliven it with a special finish, or douse it with a bold color.  It can take a back seat and allow the more ornate around it to stand out or it can command all the attention with it's boxy, simple, structural form.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The Parsons table design is credited to Jean-Michel Frank from Parsons Paris School of Art and Design in the 1930's. It came out of a project from one of his courses, according to the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/08/garden/08room.html">NY Times in an article in 2006</a>. The challenge was to create a table that despite the finish, could maintain it's integrity. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I do believe it has.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgknBn-1VdT5AbfacfNzXZi8_QE2zvpnMsbvnKFCByKWpBMO2gcqFuDiub5Zh6oAN4e16x1qncll2cZFetipEwm8F7bUkNgAd6DR9uJXtScDDLHbyRfkaeQYe4bMlJEhLAfpWQxbhLYQjJg/s1600/Lonny.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="530" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div align="center">This project featured in <a href="http://www.lonnymag.com/issues/28-may-june-2011-issue/pages/1">Lonny</a>, is where one might expect a Parsons table to be found.  Modern, clean-lined, plain and simple next to all that pattern.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijCEX6Neu6dRBMG6ktswXwlWLwvUzYaOEEDJcom8k95EqfyNboXCtc1MRZeYv0uwaI_oA-Hxn1NOrZFrsuPnaz48Z3ZNTUigye6EjCYDeEF8uiGrF7i4eRfkVuXQbs2wHlcbTdc7yTzb2N/s1600/photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" /></a></div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"><em><span style="font-size: x-small;">David deMatei and Patrick Wade - House Beautiful</span></em></div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center">However, it is at home in a more traditional environment.
