Loll Rapson Side Table
Ralph liked to sketch furniture as much as buildings and often his furniture drawings were just filler for a room scene in a much larger context. While plying the leaden waves of the sea of Ralph’s sketches, we spotted this side table and the accompanying cocktail table. Staying true to the drawing is crucial to us, and we think we got these two just as Ralph would have liked them. Both these mid-century tables will work superbly with the Rapson Collection, but they are strong enough to stand alone. Designed by Ralph Rapson with Toby Rapson for Loll Designs.

Ralph Rapson
USA, 1914
Ralph Rapson was part of an exhilarating era in American Modernist architecture and design. He began his formal architectural training in the early 1930s at the University of Michigan and then attended the Cranbrook Academy of Art, led by Finnish architect Eliel Saarinen.
At age thirty-one he participated in Arts and Architecture magazine’s Case Study program for postwar housing. Rapson’s “Greenbelt House” entry drew wide and favorable critical attention. With his renowned drawing skills he produced hundreds of furniture designs including his own successful line for K G. Knoll Associates in the 1940s.
Ralph Rapson's accomplishments in architecture and design span 70 years and connect the defining events and personalities of American Modernism. His furniture is in the collections of major modern art and design museums. His buildings are coveted for their masterful use of space, light, and line.
TrueRide, a municipal skate park design and build contractor, created Loll in 1997 to use excess recycled materials from skate parks. The founders built and installed 450 skate parks across the US and globally. Loll repurposed excess ramp material, and the first design was the iconic Adirondack Chair made with post-industrial plastic.
Loll products include chairs, tables, accessories, and more. The designs are durable, all-weather modern, and functional. Materials include recycled plastics from shampoo, milk jug containers, and other post-consumer plastic. Loll is part of the circular economy and recycles more than 88% of their manufacturing waste, along with several other ongoing sustainability initiatives.
