Ovankgol Table by Reiko Kaneko
by sabine7 / June 10, 2009


Over the past little while we've been bringing you highlights from SaloneSatellite 2009, a show of work by over 700 young, emerging designers and design students. The theme this year was Designing Wellness, with the focus on mind, body and soul. The Ovankgol Table by Reiko Kaneko gives the impression of a heavy wooden table floating just above the surface, thanks to the cast resin legs. Asif Khan's Foam Shell Chair also goes against type: the material has been hardened to keep its shape and offer structure for seating. Work from Denmark's Designskolen Kolding included felt seating and flooring, offering tactile warmth and visual richness.

contrast between resin + wood is wonderful + floating... gorgeous.
