This Attractive Side Table is Laser-Cut with an Engraved Map of London
David Ingram — October 8, 2015 — Art & Design
Designer Hasan Agar created this topographical side table that features an engraved map of London, England cut into the top of its surface.
The streets of London are actually laser-cut into the metal top of the table creating a series of gaps inside the solid surface for an interesting city grid effect. Various city landmarks have also been conveniently marked on the engraved map surface as well.
The table comes in three different matte powder paint finishes including white, black and the more colorfully detailed water color design that actually distinguishes green spaces and waterways from the city streets. The table also features triangular wooden legs made from solid beech wood and comes flat packed for easy shipping and at home assembly.
