15 Conceptual Tables Unveiling the Essence of Design
In the realm of design, where creativity intertwines with functionality, the conceptual movement stands out as an avant-garde force that challenges traditional norms and pushes the boundaries of imagination. Rooted in the belief that design is not merely about aesthetics, but also a powerful means of communication, the conceptual design movement has emerged as a captivating avenue for designers to express their ideas and provoke thought. Conceptual tables, in particular, embody the spirit of this movement, transforming the very essence of what we perceive as a functional piece of furniture. Discover our collection of 15 conceptual tables, which redefine functionality and aesthetics, embodying artistic vision and experimental design concepts.

Rails 550 by Gwendoline Porte
RAILS® is a unique concept that bridges the gap between functional design and art, which is inspired by a railway track section.
