DINING TABLE

DURING THE DESIGN PROCESS OF THE “NORD” TABLE, I AIMED TO STRIKE A BALANCE BETWEEN MODERN GEOMETRY AND ORGANIC FORM LANGUAGE. THE TABLETOP INCORPORATES A CHAMFER, WHICH LENDS THE PIECE A REFINED AND UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE. THIS CHAMFER NOT ONLY VISUALLY SHARPENS THE EDGE CONDITION, BUT ALSO ACTS AS A DEFINING GEOMETRIC REFERENCE FOR THE LEG SYSTEM.

INSPIRED BY NATURE

THE LEGS ARE UNIVERSAL IN DESIGN AND ARE POSITIONED AT A 45-DEGREE ANGLE BENEATH THE TABLETOP, PRECISELY ALIGNING THEIR PRIMARY DIRECTIONAL AXIS WITH THE CHAMFER ANGLE OF THE TOP. THIS CREATES A COHERENT TRANSITION BETWEEN SURFACE AND SUPPORT STRUCTURE, STRENGTHENING THE VISUAL AND STRUCTURAL CONTINUITY OF THE DESIGN.

VERTEL OVER MATERIAAL dimensions

THE LEGS FEATURE A DRAFT ANGLE, TAPERING TOWARDS THE FLOOR, WHICH ENHANCES THE PERCEPTION OF LIGHTNESS AND LIFT. THE INCORPORATION OF GENEROUS FILLETS IN THE LEG GEOMETRY FURTHER SOFTENS THE FORM, INTRODUCING AN ORGANIC QUALITY THAT CONTRASTS THE OTHERWISE PRECISE AND CONTROLLED GEOMETRY.

THE CONCEPTUAL FOUNDATION OF THIS TABLE IS PARTLY ROOTED IN NATURAL FORMS AND STRUCTURES. THE DESIGN PROCESS BEGAN WITH FREEHAND SKETCHING, AFTER WHICH THE CONCEPT WAS PROGRESSIVELY DEVELOPED, REFINED, AND OPTIMIZED WITHIN A CAD ENVIRONMENT. IN ESSENCE, THE RESULT IS A DINING TABLE THAT CONVEYS CALMNESS AND RESTRAINT, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY EXPRESSING A DISTINCT AND CONFIDENT CHARACTER.
