Deniz Atkay designs the new Overlap table, which continues to push the boundaries in the realm of furniture. It is a coffee table that can also function as a bookshelf as well. This unique design is made up of layers that are referenced in its own namesake. It features a relatively minimal design language, making it versatile to style in any space.
Due to its compact, design, it is also able to be used as a side table as well. The Overlap table is made up of two wooden boxes in a rotated look that is joined together to create a table that features storage space. It has a form at the base of the table that swings the wooden box outwards to create a tabletop. The other box simply functions as a storage unit and support.
