Nendo's woven table challenges the notions of design by creating a surface that's both structured and textured. Lines can be woven into baskets or mesh to create a surface, but very rarely does the technique expand further into the design world. Nendo sought to experiment with the process, weaving intricate lines to create a patterned surface. The minimalist white table features a smooth surface that breaks into woven lines, creating an "ambiguous expression." The table appears as though its dissembling itself into lines.
The unique table acts as a practical piece of home decor as well as a unique art piece, appealing to lovers of one-of-a-kind luxury items. The hybrid of the table combines both fine art and design, inspiring a new form of interior design.
