The Design

About Meta Cell Taula de Billar

Meta Cell és una taula de billar dissenyada per adaptar-se a molts interiors diferents. La forma s'inspira en criatures alienígenes imaginàries que canvien de forma per no ser vistes, i les siluetes suaus ajuden la taula a integrar-se en entorns variats. Les potes futuristes reforcen tant l'aparença com la funció de la taula de billar. Meta Cell està fabricada amb plàstic reforçat amb fibra per aconseguir una major estabilitat, i la superfície superior té un acabat vidriat que és fàcil de netejar. El disseny convida els usuaris a observar i reflexionar sobre el món que els envolta.

Many sketches have been done to simplify the complicated forms besides protecting its futuristic style and making an emotional connection between the project and the users by design. Furthermore, research has been done to explore the different signs of the creatures from the space on our planet and how to transfer the signs to the shape of furniture.
Inspiration: The Meta Cell is a pool table inspired by the aliens and exploring the mysterious and curious signs of them that have been left on our planet.
