Side Table No. 2
Striking. Wooden side table consisting of two stripped-down
trestles and a table top. The seemingly heavy top contrasts the rigid trestles.
The top gives in and provides space for the sharp ends of the trestles to lock
the legs and the top together. Intriguing shapes, familiar yet not at all,
balancing between art and design. Viewed from different angles the side table
varies greatly. A design meant to puzzle our understanding of shape, form and
function.

Based in Basel, Swiss designers Dominic Plueer and Olivier Smitt
work to challenge our assumption and perception of daily life’s most basic
products. Through emboldening a product’s material presence and not demoting
unfamiliar forms to typical primary functions, PlueerSmitt’s small-scale
furniture and objects confirm that life’s basic products can realize new life
as autonomous objects. |
