Abacus is a table composed of a powder-coated steel structure and natural or burnt solid oak tops. Abacus pushes conventions aside. The table tops glide and move freely along the structure without any constraints, leaving the user free to choose the layout. As the plates disappear, the structure reveals itself and becomes a graphic element that takes shape in space. From a dinner for two, to a family meal, the table is composed and broken down in a playful way. Abacus is a game of translation and composition between the different guests where the placements are random and change according to our needs and desires.
