Spill
LOW PROFILE COCKTAIL TABLE
Spill confronts the disparity of spatial demands between
Japanese and Western contemporary furniture design. The
Japanese concept of "ma" refers to the perception of space
projected by an object. Through Western interpretation, "ma"
manifests into a notion of optional space. Through
accommodative 2-piece composition and removal of excess core
mass, a typically bulky monolith becomes transportation
practical and modest in weight.
Scrap MDF, polyester resin,
and automotive paint. 2 pcs.

bed, Jux is truly one of a kind. The 2fold design proves sturdy
with a running tongue and grove joint along the length of the
material.

produce a determined from, here the
material defines the outcome. Placing
weights on heated acrylic allows the
material to manipulate naturally under
pressure, therefore increasing the
overall strength of the final
product.
