The Holland Table by Joost Wever Has a Unique Underbelly

— November 22, 2010 — Art & Design
The Holland table holds a little surprise for the owner. Although it may look like a typical wooden table, underneath lies a hidden city -- Holland, to be exact.

Designed by Joost Wever, the Holland table is the direct result of using leftover pieces accumulated throughout the creation process. Instead of gluing them on haphazardly, however, Wever created a landscape that makes this table extra special. Overall, the table itself is magnificent even without its unique underbelly.
