Behind the name

The story

NAOS began with an idea from founder Mario Morbidelli: furniture could change through movement. Working with designers in the mid-1980s, he developed tables that opened, expanded, and transformed through coordinated mechanisms.

That idea remains central to the brand’s Action Design approach. Dining and coffee tables combine a strong visual identity with a useful change of shape, making movement part of the experience of living with the piece.

What sets it apart

Craft and materials

Glass and ceramic surfaces feature in the collection, paired with engineered structures and moving mechanisms. Finishes and operation differ by model; compare both the closed footprint and the full extension area before choosing a table.

Why we carry it

NAOS offers a distinctive answer when a room needs flexibility. We can help assess how an expanding table fits the seating arrangement and circulation space in your home.
