Fascinating Fastener Furniture

The Clamp-a-Leg Table and Clip Chair Set is a Gripping Design

— April 25, 2011 — Eco
With their easy fastener legs, the Clamp-a-Leg Table and Clip Chair let you mix and match your furniture.

Designed by De Vorm, these furnishings are made up of components that attach onto anything. If you ask me, it's much easier than screwing in pieces of furniture together. This set is a life-saver for clumsy folks like me. These wooden legs with their metal clamps simply grip onto any flat surfaces to transform them into functional workspaces. The lumber design makes them eco-friendly and they are suitable for any flat top in the house.

The Clamp-a-Leg Table was designed by Sebastian Herkner and the Clip Chair was made by Jorre van Ast. It was presented at this year's Salone de Mobile in Milan.
