French designer Philippe Nigro has developed a table and chair concept that functions in a dynamic way. The foundation of the table is called a “Universal Base” to which any square or rectangular top can be clamped. No tools needed. The designer cleverly left the functional components exposed.
The Twin Chair starts as a wood crafted piece. It can be clad with a metal overlay to both vary the appearance and provide a surface that can take more abuse. The metal overlay would likely also come in different colors.
Both pieces were introduced during the exhibition “Design Available for Production” organized by the VIA Design France.

Love the simplicity of all this.

Very funky concept… bit like leggo’s for living – does that make it living leggo’s, or living with leggo’s? I know, I know it’s really nothing like it, just the concept reminds me.
