MORE FROM LESS
Environmental Design is on the agenda at Formtank as we seek a more sustainable approach to design. 2d3d Group attempts to produce "more from less" through a simple proposition; utilise a sheet of steel in the most efficient way. Each table has been reverse designed from the steel industry's standard sheet size in order to maximize yield and minimize waste. This radical approach limits waste steel to less than 4% overall. Moreover the intricate forms create the illusion of more material than there actually is, on average the steel base represents just one third of steel and glass combined.
