The Design

About Arc Mesa de Centro

Arc é uma mesa de centro concebida para espaços de habitação contemporâneos. Arc é feita em madeira de freixo moldada por curvatura laminada. Três tiras curvas são unidas para formar uma estrutura triangular arredondada e tridimensional. Cada tira liga-se às outras duas, pelo que são necessárias quatro juntas em cada tira e cada ângulo deve ser cortado com precisão. A mesa mede 77 centímetros de largura, 77 centímetros de profundidade e 48 centímetros de altura. O design é leve e pode ser utilizado como mobiliário ou apreciado como um objeto escultórico. Arc inspira-se na arquitetura moderna e em estruturas simples, sem decoração excessiva.
