Description
Tall Cocktail Console - Design by Ken Scott, ca. 1969
This remarkable tall cocktail console is a vibrant expression of the artistic vision of Ken Scott, a celebrated figure in 20th-century fashion and design. The piece likely originates from his iconic Milanese restaurant, "Eats & Drinks," which he opened in 1969 as a total work of art where every detail was his own creation.
In its floral fabric, we see his signature repeated throughout its perimeter.
In 1969, he opened "Eats & Drinks," a restaurant in Milan entirely designed by him: every decoration, service, and detail of the space was his creation. Furthermore, given his love of cooking and the numerous places he visited, his restaurant served the first example of "fusion" cuisine, the result of the union of different culinary traditions. With "Eats & Drinks," Ken Scott once again demonstrated the limitless nature of his artistic ability.
From the furnishings to the textiles, dishware, and interior decor, Scott designed every element of the space. The restaurant also introduced one of the earliest examples of fusion cuisine in Europe, blending culinary influences from the many cultures Scott encountered throughout his travels.
Design & Materials
The console stands out for its:
four turned legs, each composed of seven spherical elements that play with volume and rhythm, evoking the sculptural and playful forms typical of the Space Age aesthetic;
A refined yet whimsical structure, visually lightened by a decorative band fully upholstered in the original vintage fabric, designed by Ken Scott specifically for his restaurant project;
the floral and geometric pattern, bursting with vibrant colors-orange, violet, yellow, red, and pink-features bold, pop-art motifs from the psychedelic era. What makes this textile even more special is the presence of Ken Scott's signature woven directly into the fabric, a rare and personal mark of authenticity.
A Rare Collector's Piece
More than just a piece of furniture, this console is a functional sculpture-a testament to the artistic freedom of one of Italy's most eclectic designers. Ideal for:
creating bold, joy-filled cocktail corners,
enhancing pop-inspired or postmodern interiors,
or being featured in museums and high-end hospitality installations.
Beautifully preserved, it represents a rare opportunity for collectors and design lovers to acquire a piece of Italian design history from the late 1960s.
