Marbelous: Marble-chute Table by Tineke Beunder

Design blog Core77 has a ton of posts and video from Milan. In addition to a chat with Derek Chen of Council (and a peek at their new products), there is a quick video of Dutch designer Tineke Beunder's Marbelous table. It's a wooden table that has been carved to double as a marble shoot chute...

omg - i LOVED marble shoots as a kid. Favorite component being the "toilet bowl" piece, naturally.

Amusing for about 10 minutes, then you're stuck with an ugly piece of furniture.
