I designed this table for my best friend - an architect and an artist. I wanted the table to be as functional as it was aesthetic. 

Designed with concepts of circularity in mind, the table can be completely disassembled; and individual components can be used in other ways as well should the client not need the table anymore. 

Elaborate brass joinery adds a lovely aesthetic combined with the rich teak.

CIRCULARITY


The table was designed in a way that the individual components can be reused should the table be dismantled permanently. The legs can be turned in vases, the adjustable mechanism at the back becomes a rack for plates. The board can become a pin-up board and the tray can be used as a key tray. All of the metal components can either be reused or the metal can be melted and re-cast.

THE FINAL PIECE


The table was made by my dear friend Ansh of Studio Bavl, and my vision was realised perfectly.  

​

The piece turned out functional in terms of ergonomics, and has stood the test of time so far.

The table in use: 
1. The back of the board with the mechanism visible
2. In-use as an easel, height is suitable. 
3. Side-angle of the mechanism at work.
