A Spanish design studio called OITO created an adjustable coffee table that will transform into a [large dining table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnolia-extendable-dining-table). It begins at a low height, which is perfect for living rooms or front porches, but can be easily propped up to become a dining table for dinner parties or extra company.

It is called the M-Table because of the way the legs are shaped. In its original form as a coffee table, the legs actually make the uppercase letter 'M.' It will then pivot upwards to make the dining table as the legs flex open.

The adjustable coffee table has a [smooth wooden finish](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boia), which increases its already versatile functions. The finish allows it to fit into any space without clashing among other decor items.
