Vortex
In people's mind a table is basically an object with four legs. What would it be, if it were otherwise?
There are several solutions in existence, which contradict this fact.
A table's static appearance always visible supported by clear physical properties, which creates natural view in our eyes.
My concept was to rethink this phenomenon with a round table, which questions its statics and breaks common statements.
My aim was to design a one-legged table, which informs a continuous speed like a tornado or a whirl in a hibernate scene.
The table's body is cored fiberglass or carbon fiber reinforced plastic, which supported by an inner steel structure to a steel sole, which is hidden inside an optimal, flexible plastic rug under the table creating a high stability and covering its static clarity at the same time.
The table's height ergonomically 75 cm and its diameter is 180 cm offering eight comfortable seats.
A. Top
B. Inner supporting steel construction
C. Body
D. Flexible plastic rug (customisable)
E. Hidden steel sole
A flexible plastic rug is integral part of the table, which is costumisable regarding any basis form and colour variations.
The whirls' form welcomes back at the top of the table as a built-in bowl for any utilities.
The round table appears as a perfect viewing point and fits well with several usage in a new spatial articulation.
