The Design

About Meta Cell Billardtisch

Meta Cell ist ein Billardtisch, der sich für viele unterschiedliche Interieurs eignet. Die Form ist von imaginären außerirdischen Wesen inspiriert, die ihre Gestalt verändern, um unsichtbar zu bleiben – die weichen Silhouetten lassen den Tisch mit den verschiedensten Umgebungen verschmelzen. Die futuristischen Beine unterstützen sowohl die Erscheinung als auch die Funktion des Billardtisches. Meta Cell besteht aus faserverstärktem Kunststoff für höhere Stabilität, und die Oberseite ist mit einer glasierten, leicht zu reinigenden Oberfläche versehen. Das Design lädt die Nutzer dazu ein, die sie umgebende Welt zu beobachten und über sie nachzudenken.

Research: I have always tried to design something unique and meaningful. Obviously, there are many ideas behind each design, which is no different. 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. The concept is about a story in that aliens change their shapes into weird forms to hide from being seen by humans.
