# Single-Piece Wooden Chair Concepts Deniz Atkay Designs the Slide Table Concept with a Single Sheet By Amy Duong | Published 2024-08-31 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slide-table-1 References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/08/30/minimalist-side-table-concept-uses-a-single-wood-sheet-with-almost-no-offcuts/) & [dezinobjects](https://www.dezinobjects.com/)  Deniz Atkay designed the Slide Table, which is a design concept highlighting the elements of its packaging and manufacturing process. All parts of the entire table are made with a single sheet of wood which means that the mass-produced variations would have the same quality. This achieves a sustainable notion as the designer was looking to reduce the most amount of waste possible. The surface is a circle disc which is carved from the center of a wooden plank. The remaining areas are cut into half which function as the legs which are meant to 'slide' into each other with an intersecting middle area -- it creates a cross which is the base support of the disc seat.
