The HUBLER Table by IVANKA and Janos Hubler

As a lover of all things novel, including novels, the HUBLER Table seems made just for me. I know you don't know me, but let me tell you, it really is. As a person who constantly arranges and rearranges her multitude of books in interesting structures, I'm sure you'll agree that this table offers the perfect solution.

Designed by furniture manufacturer IVANKA and artist Janos Hubler, the HUBLER Table is made out of cement. Constantly changing due to the shifting of books by users, it is, according to IVANKA, "a monument to eternal knowledge."
