About Threshold Fonction principale : Table basse
Texte du livre : Threshold est une table basse composée de plans métalliques imbriqués qui assurent la stabilité sans fixations supplémentaires. La structure est constituée de composants en acier usinés par CNC et pliés avec précision, qui se glissent dans des fentes conçues sur mesure pour un assemblage sans outil. Les options de finition comprennent l'acier brossé et le revêtement en poudre mat afin de garantir la durabilité. La conception met l'accent sur les proportions, la clarté et la facilité d'installation, présentant une forme métallique harmonieuse adaptée aux intérieurs résidentiels et commerciaux.

- Unique Properties
- Threshold is a minimalist coffee table composed of interlocking metal planes that require no complex hardware for assembly. The structure relies on geometric precision and material integrity to achieve stability. Brushed stainless steel and matte RAL finishes enhance its sculptural clarity. The design combines structural honesty with intuitive assembly, creating a refined yet functional decorative object.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Width 1200 mm x Depth 800 mm x Height 500 mm
Material Stainless Steel
Surface Options Brushed Stainless Steel / Matte RAL Powder Coating
Assembly Tool Free Interlocking Structure

- Production Technology
- The table is produced using laser cut stainless steel sheets, followed by precision bending and surface finishing. Brushed stainless steel or powder coated matte RAL color options are applied to ensure durability and visual consistency. The interlocking system is engineered to achieve structural rigidity without additional mechanical fasteners.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was achieving structural rigidity without visible fasteners. Balancing material thickness bending tolerances and slot precision required multiple iterations. Production limitations such as metal flexibility and finishing consistency were carefully evaluated. The outcome resolves aesthetic clarity and engineering logic within a minimal form.
- Research
- Type of Research Product design research. Research Objectives To explore structural stability through interlocking metal planes. Methodology Iterative prototyping and digital modeling. Data Collection and Research Tools Used CAD modeling structural tests and material studies. Participants Physical prototypes and load experiments. Results A stable tool free assembly system. Insights and Impacts The research demonstrates how minimal material intervention can generate durable and visually calm furniture solutions for contemporary interiors.
- Inspiration
- Threshold was inspired by the concept of structural balance and the moment of transition between two planes. Influenced by earlier explorations of surface tension and geometric clarity, the design seeks to express stability through minimal intervention. The project investigates how interlocking components can create a calm architectural presence while maintaining simplicity and ease of assembly.
- Project Duration
- The project started in February 2026 in Istanbul and was completed in February 2026 in Istanbul. The design was developed as a producible furniture piece under Studio Soldout.
- Operation Flow
- Threshold is assembled by sliding the metal planes into each other through pre engineered slots. The interlocking geometry secures the structure without screws or additional tools. The interaction is intuitive and guided by the form itself. Once assembled, the table provides a stable surface while maintaining a visually lightweight appearance.
