The shapes that build identity
The Arkitek table, designed by Alegre Design in 2008 for Actiu, has been one of the most iconic products in their catalog and has once again captured attention during its recent appearance at Feria Hábitat Valencia, held just a few weeks ago.
Originally conceived for office spaces, Arkitek is now recognized as a timeless, contemporary, and highly functionaldesign that remains fully relevant today.
With elegant architectural lines and an aluminum structure that combines both strength and lightness, Arkitek reflects Alegre Design’s vision of creating durable, versatile products that are aligned with the values of sustainability and strategic design that define the studio today.
Arkitek’s return at Feria Hábitat Valencia
Arkitek made its return at Feria Hábitat Valencia 2025, one of the most important events for design and interior architecture in Europe, held just a few weeks ago. There, Arkitek stood out for its architectural elegance, its wood structure, and its ability to adapt to new environments and uses.
-We designed Arkitek to be much more than just a work table. Today, 15 years later, it remains a benchmark thanks to its clean aesthetic and timeless functionality-

The team behind Arkitek
Actiu is a leading Spanish company in the design and manufacturing of solutions for workspaces, contract environments, and public spaces. With a strong international presence, the company has established itself as a benchmark in innovation, sustainability, and workplace well-being. Its commitment to quality, technology, and design has kept it at the forefront of the industry for over 50 years.
Throughout this journey, Alegre Design has been a strategic partner during key moments in the brand’s evolution. From the introduction of aluminum as a structural element in products such as Arkitek and TNK, to the development of new upholstery technologies in recent designs like Noon, the Valencia-based studio has supported Actiu through each technological disruption with contemporary, functional, and sustainable design solutions.
The collaboration between both companies is a clear example of how design can become a true driver of innovation, resulting in products that not only respond to today’s needs, but also anticipate the challenges of tomorrow.
