About Mubic Mensa Modularis
Mubic est mensa modularis parvis diaetis destinata. Mubic quattuor status habet et ex mensa caffearia in mensam cenatoriam duobus, quattuor vel sex hominibus mutatur. Transformatio pedibus rotandis efficitur, nulla parte addita vel dempta. Tabula superior ex ligno piceae confecta est et cardinibus firmis instructa. Pedes in campo electrostatico pinguntur ut superficies diu in bono statu conservetur. Duobus hominibus opus est ut mensa aperiatur. Effectus spatium servat et aspectum mundum ac lusorium praebet.

- Production Technology
- The top is made of "A quality" spruce wood and is equipped with super resistant hinges. The legs are painted in electrostatic field to keep the paint in the best condition for a long time.
- Design Challenge
- The hardest part of this project was to design the custom made part which lets the legs to rotate in different directions and the product development for stability and good production.
- Research
- Before designing this product, I made a deep research about modular tables. There are a lot of them which can be transformed from one position to another, most of them by adding or removing pieces of the table. But I didn't find anything like Mubic, which has 4 different positions and you can transform it without any adding or disassembling. I also went to design fairs and events to ask the opinion of the visitators about this type of product for a clear and precise vision.
- Inspiration
- In this modern-day life we usually live in such small apartments, where we don't have enough space to have a normal or bigger dining table if visitors are coming. So Mubic is perfect for those who want to save space and also for those who like its clean and joyful appearance.
- Project Duration
- Mubic was created in 2016 and in 2017 it was exhibited at Cluj Design Days. In 2019 it participated at a crowdfunding campaign, Startarium, and it had succes, it was financed.
- Operation Flow
- You need one more person to open up the table. You need to work in mirror and to synchronize. If Mubic is in position 1 you need to hold the top with your left hand and with your right hand to grab the leg and pull up towards you. After this, it is in position 2. From here you need just simply to rotate the legs and you got the other positions.
