This Table Be All Crumpled Up
Oh yes! A table that started out as a “simple software experiment.” This is exactly the sort of thing that an investigatory exploratory design junkie like me likes to read when discovering a new design. Experiencing the CNC technology was the first aim of this project. In the end, it shot out into outer space where the aesthetically unpromising became the end product, the critique of all other tables became the conclusion.
It’s a look at all other objects that are so overly designed that their primary function is overlooked! It’s got so much personality, and so much temper. This table is made more to make you consider it than to perform its task as a table.
The medium is the message!
The materials used: wood with a mat polyurethane color coat.
Designer: Milica Balubdzic

(yawn)
I could forgive it for being useless if it had some sort of grace or integrity to it. But it’s merely a faceted mesh top sitting on a standard table. The edges of the table don’t relate to the top… the bottom of the table doesn’t relate to the top, the legs don’t relate to the top… there doesn’t seem to be any *thought* involved with this. That’s not design, that’s just an accident.

The epitome of overly-designed

there are better ways to experience cnc technology than making a useless crap table
