2d3d Group
From a 2 dimensional plan comes a 3 dimensional form. The 2d3d Group is a collection of radically designed tables, all of which unfurl for a visual fiesta of geometric precision.
Admired for their intricate form, their precise engineering and efficient use of materials, the 2d3d Group is appreciated by those who find beauty in function and oppose design for the sake of design.
L'art du pli.
A striking square table with the elements of a future classic. Bending back the sub-structure in your minds eye reveals the innovation of the design or "The art of the fold". The horizontal and vertical components provide the strength and rigidity in this delightful marriage of creativity and logic.
Cut and folded from a square of sheet steel, 4foldlow, as with the entire 2d3d Group, has been reverse designed from the industry standard size of sheet steel. This approach optimises material usage, 1 sheet produces 8 tables and generates just 3.5% waste.
