Design: Transformer Table
Materials: Wenge (solid wood)
Designer: Quentin Kelley

"A client was trying to maximize space in her condo and wanted a piece that would function as a console table most of the time, but could also expand as a dining table for her frequent dinner parties. She was adamant about the dimensions of 12" wide as a console and 36" as a dining table, and this range of dimensions presented a real engineering challenge."

VOTING IS NOW CLOSED ON THIS ENTRY

"However, the resulting design, which is a variation on a traditional gate leg table, has proven to be a successful solution to the problem, and a completely original, innovative, and stylish piece."
