# Intricately Geometric Furniture The Hexagon Collector's Table by Oliver Haddon By Jessica Marcel | Published 2009-11-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hexagon-collectors-table References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/hexagon-collectors-table-by-oliver-haddon/) & [oliverhaddon](http://www.oliverhaddon.co.uk/hexagon.htm) Oliver Haddon's Hexagon Collector's Table is more than it appears at first glance. The [six-sided table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solis-collection) opens to reveal rows of [small compartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taarof-table). It's a veritable pandora's hexagon. The Hexagon Collector's Table also folds out to become a low flat surface, perfect for carpet picnics (i.e. picnics on your living room carpet).
