Strong table

An unusual table 'Ramus M1' is a product of designer's long-term study of efficient forms found in nature. According to Design studio Il Hoon Roh the table is just a first item of a modular furniture system 'Ramus M1' and is a result of a two years collaboration of a few international companies. As a result of research the best advantages for maximizing the capacity and strength of any supportive construction were found. The structure of a tree branches is turned out to have the best characteristics. 'Ramus M1' table with a glass top has a tree-like supporting structure made of carbon fiber, the material that is used in fighter jets, F1 cars and space shuttles. Il Hoon Roh is going to present the first module of the Ramus series M1 at the exhibition Salone Satellite 2013.

The Panther table by Maximilian Eicke completely justifies its name: black as resin it looks like the panther ready to pounce. The table was created in Germany for Max ID NY in limited edition. It was made with using of a combination of unidirectional carbon fiber and 2×2 carbon fiber twill, kevlar honeycomb core and titanium pieces, which means the incredible strength of the table. At the same time due to the using of ultralight materials the construction is lightweight enough for one person to carry. The Panther table can be packed by a single person into a custom built suitcase. The assembly takes only 2.5 minutes and perfect for transport.
