Inline
The INLINE table – an expression of contemporary collaboration.
The new table has a radical integrated design principle. The typical structural division into a tabletop and frame appears to have been completely discarded in this case. At the corners, the table’s surface slopes downwards and inwards and upwards and outwards with other parts of the frame again to form the table surface. The upwardly projecting shape of the table looks exceptionally appealing, understated and encourages interaction and collaboration. The transition points from the tabletop to the supporting structure are modeled organically and with complex surfaces. Due to their distinctive shapes, the frames and table tops flow seamlessly into one another. Angles, roundings and dimensions create a logic structure to ensure stiffness and light appearance in one piece of furniture. Even the outlets for multi-media equipment are integrated like subtle funnels into the table surface, while the space for connector panels is placed between the lengthwise underframes on the bottom. This table sets a unique design statement when you enter the room without being too flashy while working at, on or near by it.
