Coasters are an added benefit for consumers looking to protect surfaces from drink marks, stains and condensation and the Table Tiles by Bower offer a dual purpose design that protects as well as offers a puzzle game. This is ideal for consumers looking to add a secondary purpose to the accessory that is interactive as well as fun.
The Table Tiles are a series of simple hexagonal wooden coasters that feature a geometric line design. The design alters in diagonal direction twice on the coaster, allowing the tiles to be matched up in a slew of configurations to create larger works of art. This allows consumers to play around with the coasters and create decorative pieces while not or in use.
Decor pieces that offer more than one use, as well as a focus on interactive enjoyment, allow consumers to see more investment potential in the item.
