The Origin Coffee Table has been designed by the China-based design studio Sunae as a modernized artistic furniture piece that aims to deliver an ethereal, art-focused experience for consumers.
The table is characterized by its bowl-shaped upper that's held in place with a series of four cylindrical legs to give it a sleek yet substantial profile. The tabletop is filled with sand that will move and shift thanks to a magnetic functionality that will shift a metallic orb around to slowly yet steadily create artwork of all kinds.
The Origin Coffee Table is expected to be prices starting at $7,100 and will come in two version including the Origin S and the Origin L, which are both available now for order via the studio's website.
