Inspired by the classic foldable art of origami, this paper table by Forrest Radford is simple and functional.
The origami table is very convenient, as it is able to fold away flat. It's lightweight, which makes for easy transport. In fact, one wouldn't even need to book an elevator to get to the top of a high-rise condo. Don't let the fact that it is made of delicate cardboard material fool you. The table is able to hold weight over 175 pounds, so unless you're eating an entire wild pig with all the extras, it should be able to withstand your spread.
The assembly of the table doesn't require an IKEA map to construct. It can be put together in one simple folding process. This lovely paper table truly caters to everyone. Its inexpensive enough for use in a college frat house, yet stylish enough to be showcased in a classy condo.
