# Fluid Silhouette Tables The Quark Table Series Features Unconventional Shapes By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-09-20 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quark-table References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2014/09/18/quark-by-emmanuel-babled/) & [babled.net](http://www.babled.net/) Emmanuel Babled has designed the Quark table, an inventive series of [irregularly-shaped tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fels-coffee-table) that lie close to the ground. Babled's [organic, fluid forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loop-furnitures) immediately draw the eye in; the fact that the tables are so low to the ground is yet another aspect that sets them apart. The unorthodox shapes were created with the help of a Computer Numerical Control robot. Beyond shape and form, Babled also experimented with material, specifically [marble and wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barricane-tables). The full range of material used in the range is marble, bronze, copper, plexiglass and wood, meaning that there's a table for everyone, and every space. If you're looking for a statement piece to dress up a room, then one of the Quark tables would be a fabulous addition. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.2/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Fluid Shape Furniture:** Adoption and exploration of new geometric forms in furniture design. - **Low-lying Furniture:** Designing furniture that is low to the ground to create new ambiance and spatial experiences. - **Highly Customized Minimalist Furniture:** A new wave of highly customize-able designer furniture that are minimalistic in design. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Innovative furniture manufacturers can leverage computer-controlled systems to produce unique furniture designs. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers have the opportunity to embrace the trend of fluid and low-lying furniture to transform home and office spaces. - **Architecture:** Architects can explore the use of non-traditional furniture designs to complement progressive minimalist themes in modern architectural projects. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Shimmering Oceanic Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-table.md) - [Geologically Fluid Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-geology-table-collection.md) - [Wavy Sculptural Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-coffee-tables.md) - [Organic Abstract Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flow-family.md) - [Cloud-Inspired Furniture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloud-tables1.md) - [Playful Curiosity Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tottolo.md) - [Acrylic Multicolor Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucid-side-tables.md) - [Playful Wavy Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wavy-table-design.md) - [Blurred Bold Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blur-coffee-table.md)
