Bulky furniture is so often thrown out despite its functionality -- to combat this wasteful concept, designers created an artfully unbalanced table to help create emotional connections between people and their furniture. 'UnsTable' features an imaginative design that helps the user's everyday tasks become something extraordinary. The kneeling table contains special magnets in its small pockets, which ensure objects can be placed on its surface without slipping off. These magnets give the appearance that the table can defy gravity while offering a perfectly reasonable place to work, relax or eat.
The kneeling aspect of the table was designed strategically to create the illusion of a living creature. This concept allows the user to interact with their furniture in a charming way, encouraging the human to form a more emotional attachment to their products.
