The Embrace Side Table is an exploration of form and gesture. Inspired by the human body, Anna and Syd came together to create a table that expresses the merging, embracing and meeting of two bodies.
Individually, the table best functions as a side table. Its curvy top makes it a unique piece of furniture for any living space. It breaks the tradition of a square or rectangular shape offering the space with a round and playful energy. Only being three pieces that interlock, the table is collapsible, making it an easy piece of furniture to be stored and moved.
As a pair, the tables merge around their curves, doubling in surface area and bringing them into a more conventional rectangular shape. In this configuration the tables can work as a coffee table when needed for more space.
The tables are great alone, but even better together.
