These Tables Don't Quake

If you find yourself anywhere near the San Andreas fault, you probably have the expectation of a little shake and quake every now and then. While the Tectonic Table series by Alain Gilles for Bonaldo may employ a similar principle used by geologists to explain the large scale motions of the Earth’s lithosphere, we hardly think you have to hold on to your orange juice for fear of tremors if you should so happen to be eating brunch on their latest creations. “The Tectonic table series is based on the idea of movement within the construction of its shape but also the ability to create unexpected free form geometry by shifting and juxtaposing several small tables one next to the other,” allowing those who want choices when decorating their space to have the option of playing with both opened and closed spacing by mixing the tables together. The set of tables are made out of metal wires, or with a plain top laser cut out of a 4mm steel sheet and powder coated in a mat textured finish. When viewed from above they clearly display the shape of rose, that while it may not smell as sweet certainly look the part. Hopefully they’ll provide only the most pleasant of aesthetic aftershocks.
