"Multiple" Low Table of any Shape by Raphael Charles
The best furniture we have ever wanted to have is the one that is created by our imagination. Designer Raphael Charles has presented a fun furniture assembly called "Multiple" that is actually a low table of any shape you want. This trick is possible due to the main idea of assembly: the table consists of repetitive magnetic beech poles, glued to each other into different shapes. The sculptural table can be adapted for any place and makes it much easier to apportion living spaces. As a result, our fantasy is limited by the size of an area only. For example, you can write a short greeting and it will be a wonderful surprise. The "Multiple" is very mobile and may be useful either in the home or in the garden, courtyard, veranda and terrace.
