Will a round table with two legs stand up? Well, the 'Doppio Gioco' table created by 5.5 Designers (cinq cinq designers) will certainly stand--at least, when aided by a lamp, a magazine stand or a birdcage.

5.5 Designers’ new [collection of furniture and lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-table-designs) designed for the Italian company Coincasa was presented at Milan Design Week 2009. The collection includes this original [two-legged table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pere-chair) with either an incorporated light, magazine stand or birdcage. Each of these options is built with a leg that extends to the floor, giving the 'Dioppio Gioco' the third leg it needs to stand.
