Table-Table
Anyone who works from home will have often wrestled with the blurring boundaries between living space and work space. The ill-defined transition from professional to private becomes most tangible at the table: this piece of furniture is the centre of the work space, but at the same time it is the hub of the home. Table-Table redefines the difference. The table top is made out of a Smart Glass with an electronic switch. It changes from transparent into opaque at the press of a button. Switch it on, and you can see all your things and the materials that inspire you. Switch it off, and everything work-related will disappear beneath a cloudy layer of milk glass.
