The 'Tablecloth' side table has been designed by Deniz Aktay as a piece of furniture that captures the essence of falling fabric using decidedly tough materials. The table is crafted using a single piece of molded metal, which highlights rigidity and sheen, while still allowing the furniture piece to maintain a sense of movement. The table thus emulates the look of fabric floating in midair as it falls to the ground to give it an ethereal sense of weightlessness despite its metallic construction.
The 'Tablecloth' side table is accented by a series of three sharply tapered feet to further enhance its sense of airiness. The table further reinforces the airy nature of its inspiration by incorporating slightly waves on two of the three sides.
