The iTable by Mirko Ginepro premiered at Milan Design Week, and unlike other tables that resemble Apple’s iconic music player, this one is almost an exact replica, complete with a cleverly hidden shelf.
Available in yellow, white and black, the iTable by Mirko Ginepro is made to order and produced from Corian. Ginepro, an Italian artist and industrial designer, makes each iTable by hand. Now you can house your iPod on its dock on top of a doppelganger table beside your Apple laptop.
