The 'Willow' side table has been designed by Jeff Theesfeld and Shaun Smith (Union Design) for KFI Studios as a multifunctional furniture piece for the home that responds to changing consumer habits. The side table features a C-shaped construction achieved out of plywood and covered with a touch laminate to prevent daily use from resulting in premature wear. The table offers a spot to place a drink or small decor items, but can also be positioned into desktop mode when a person wants to work on their laptop, jot notes and more from the living room.
The 'Willow' side table is accented by a set of wheels on the rear that enable easy movement around a space. The furniture piece responds seamlessly to the work from home boom to support professionals looking to get work done in a relaxed manner.
