Zero-In Umbra Grey Low Table
Constructed from an apparently seamless ribbon of moulded polyester with a high gloss finish, the Zero-In low table is an exercise in restrained form. The table appears to hover slightly above the ground. A glass top is barely visible, giving the impression that objects placed upon it are unsupported. A dual wall construction provides another visual illusion, looking into the table its sides seem to converge at a greater pitch than expected.
The Zero-Ins simple form at first belies the complex and contradictory elements of this design that further engage the viewer. The design was developed using sophisticated production techniques usually reserved for car manufacture.
