The Design

About Illusion Mesa

The Illusion é unha mesa auxiliar que xoga coa perspectiva. Ao inclinar dúas das patas, a mesa permanece estable pero cambia completamente o seu aspecto. A mesa é unha reflexión sobre como a nosa mente pode enganarnos e sobre como aínda hai moitas posibilidades de deseñar produtos que pensamos que son inmutables.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The shape of the table is unique and turns it into an optical illusion. Simple, exciting and a table that plays around with perspective and also with our minds.
Dimensions & Packaging: 900 x 500 x 660mm
Tags: Side Table, Illusion
Production Technology: Carbon steel - powder coating - T profile 0.8'', tube D1'', bronze mirror top
Design Challenge: The biggest challenge was to reach the best proportions without affecting the stability of the table.
Research: Always applying the emotional design in her works Roberta Rampazzo created the table Illusion from simple and innovative lines. Based on studies of the table’s feet she got a playful result that surprises the viewer by its stability and its several angles. A reflection of how our mind is able to delude ourselves. Often we judge our point of view as unique, not realizing that even before just one object can exist infinite perspectives.
Inspiration: By applying her primary intuition as a pivotal element in her creative process, Roberta Rampazzo was able to design the Illusion table. A unique piece with elegant lines creating a multitude of optical illusions.
Project Duration: The project started in the end of 2012 and finished in the beginning of 2014 with the new version of the flat packaging table.
Operation Flow: The table has two parts, mirror top and the legs. Flat packaging.
