The Drew Table Range is a smart furniture series that is inspired by modern cities and geometric shapes. As though modeled after the iron latticed design of the Eiffel Tower, each piece sports an intricate design that revolves around visually striking wire arrangements. Unlike the iconic tower, the design is nevertheless much more minimalist, which perfectly suits contemporary living spaces.
Designed by London-based designer Kirsty Whyte for Modus Furniture UK, the Drew Table Range debuted during the Milan Furniture Fair. Made up of a meeting table, coat rack as well as high and low occasional tables, the series was impressively created using one continuous steel rod. Available in three powder coated finishes with glass tops, the Drew Table Range is at once simple, sophisticated and sculptural.
