Joint Table

Joint Table, Benchmark

'Joint without metal fixture, no glue.'

A dining table for 6.  Without using nails or screws, structural elements and legs are constructed using four joints - inspired by traditional Japanese joinery. 

 

Stability is made possible by the angled legs and precision works by skilled craftsmen.  The joints are elegant enough to be enjoyed - so it has a glass table top to show them.  For transportation, you need only a flat box to carry 8 slim timbers and the top.

『接着なし、木組みだけで支えるダイニングテーブル』

搬送時に効率の良いフラットパックを実現するべくムク材の木組みをデザインしたら、隠すには惜しい美しい構造になったので、ガラスの天板を載せて楽しめるダイニングテーブルにしました。

 

伝統の木組みに学びながら、脚に角度をつけ、熟練した木工職人の加工で遊びを減らして構造を安定させました。短時間で組み立てられ、搬送はテーブル天板サイズの薄い箱に収まります。

This piece was launched at the 'Objective' exhibition at Rocket Gallery. In collaboration with Benchmark.
