Designed by Kenneth Cobonpue the Wave Table is a hand made piece of furniture. Hand-finished walnut or mahogany wood pieces are attached together in a graceful and rhythmic pattern to create sculptural tables that seemingly float on the ground.

Mosaics are great additions to home decor, not just for floors and walls but tables. Mosaic tiling on tables is not new but many of those you come across would not suit a contemporary style. So it is delightful to see the work of designer Brad Teasdale, co-founder of Brooklyn Glassworks, NY. He is ” the pioneer of exclusive techniques that blend contemporary concrete and glass design with classical mosaic craftsmanship.” His nested tables are an example of that skill. It is made of concrete, kiln formed glass and stainless steel and demonstrates his artistry with contrast and placements.

For those who prefer the warmer tones of wood, his custom designed Colourshapes table shows his versatility with mosaics on organic material. Overall this is one designer who is able to combine art with utilitarian function. Teasdale does custom installations of a wide variety of tile applications including furniture, architectural features and fine art. He could be called a modern mosaic master. - Via

It’s been a long day at the office, you get home, change into something comfortable and watch the football game. Wouldn’t you want to rest your feet on your new FUKU/TTON table? You’re not allowed on the table? Stephan Wootton designed the FUKU/TTON with a hexagonal structure meant to reduce the living space, and with a slide-out top that hides four cushions (upholstery foam and Italian wool fabric) inside, that would transform it into a footrest, ottoman or a Japanese-style floor seating. Made of rubber ply and sugar maple veneer for the body, solid Canadian sugar maple on the rails and aluminum sheet for at the base. It gets our vote for functionality.

The Stink table is designed by Dylan Gold for Link Studios and it is a brilliant conversation piece for those guests that appreciate contrast in modern design. Now I know that a lot of people would say, but is a cracked table, I can’t use it. That’s right that stuff will fall through the cracks if you are not careful, and you should buy it only if you want a piece of modern design that looks good, but it isn’t really functional. According to the designer, Dylan Gold, the table is very heavy, made of solid mdf layers coated in automotive lacquer and clear coat. Finally to solve the cracked part the designer suggests that you can also fit it with a piece of glass on top. - Via

The George3 console table is designed by Gareth Neal, and is a piece of furniture that is quite unique, and can very easily catch your eye. In the same style we presented last year another interesting table by Gareth Neal. The only problem I can see is there will be dust to collect in those small spaces, and it could be difficult to take it away.
