Known for his oceanic designs, Eduard Locota has created an ocean-themed table that is exceptionally beautiful.
The table looks exactly like an aerial snapshot of a clear blue ocean -- reminiscent of the blue holes that can be seen in beaches in the Bahamas or Belize. The table is constructed from white marble and colored acrylic glass. The visual depth the designer was able to accomplish for something as simple as a small table is truly awe-inspiring. The ocean-themed table stands on only three legs but maintains a low center of gravity to counter any potential imbalances.
When sunlight is shone through this table, it responds just as the ocean would, replicating the distinct waves and movements that can be seen underwater.
