Glimpse is a side table designed for use beside seating units. The form of Glimpse is a reflection of an organic shape divided into small sections, joining an organic outline with a minimalist design. The table is made of wood and tempered glass. The wooden parts are produced with a CNC router, and silicone dots are attached to the wooden parts to stop the tempered glass from slipping. The glass has a concave slope that allows easy access from a sitting position on a sofa. The glass can be flipped, so the table can be placed on either side of the seating.
