About Gambit Šahovska miza
Gambito je po meri izdelana šahovska miza, ki je bila premišljeno zasnovana za izpolnjevanje specifičnih zahtev. Cilj je bil ustvariti mizo, ki ne ponuja le dovolj prostora za igralno ploščo, temveč vključuje tudi dodatno površino za odlaganje pijač in mobilnih naprav. Navdih iz proizvodnih tehnologij industrijske revolucije se odraža v končnem oblikovanju, ki združuje več strojno izdelanih aluminijastih delov, ki skupaj ustvarjajo ta edinstveni kos.

- Unique Properties
- This chess table is a one-of-a-kind piece that takes inspiration from the late industrial revolution era. It features an asymmetrical design made up of aluminum elements that support two oval glass tops. The topmost glass serves as the playing surface for chess while the lower one can hold beverages or other items. The table has a shiny and intricate appearance, with a complex base consisting of two vertical shafts connected by horizontal extensions. The main shaft has four subsystems with four arms extending from a ring to support the glass top and three stabilizing legs at the bottom. An extension from the middle of the main shaft runs to a lean shaft that functions as a fourth leg and supports the second glass top. The table combines form and function in a sophisticated and stylish way, making it a unique piece of furniture.

- Inspiration
- It was inspired by industrial machinery from the late 18th and early 19th century, during the Industrial revolution. Machines' mechanisms were exposed for simple visual inspection and service. Gambit resembles complex mechanical systems found in early steam machine technology. It is designed to expose all machine-made components, fixtures, and functionality. The aesthetics elegantly combine the art of war, and chess-playing with the rough exposure system to generate a sublime experience for the players.
