About Arc Koffietafel

Arc is 'n koffietafel wat ontwerp is vir hedendaagse leefruimtes. Arc is gemaak van es-hout wat deur gelamineerde buiging gevorm is. Drie geboë strokke word saamgevoeg om 'n afgeronde, driedimensionele driehoekige struktuur te vorm. Elke strook verbind met die ander twee, sodat vier voeë op elke strook nodig is en elke hoek presies gesny moet word. Die tafel meet 77 sentimeter in wydte, 77 sentimeter in diepte en 48 sentimeter in hoogte. Die ontwerp is liggewig en kan as meubelstuk gebruik word of as 'n beeldhouwerk beskou word. Arc put uit moderne argitektuur en eenvoudige strukture sonder oortollige versiering.
