Akemi Tanaka's Futaba Coffee Table




Hi all,

I have so little time for posting today, which may be a good thing since I can't be as long winded, but I really wanted to talk about this brilliant piece by Akemi Tanaka who I saw a few days ago on Small Space Big Style. As a coffee table, the Futaba is already a stunning piece but it also opens up into upholstered seating. It's a bit hard to see in the pictures, but it has a really comfortable sloping back-- the base indents slightly so that both sides fit perfectly together. The wood is actually bamboo plywood, so it's also very eco-friendly. It's just a geniusly designed piece for a small space, and also very beautiful. You can learn more about Akemi here, and the Futaba is for sale at Inmod (for close to 5k).



I will post about some really cool handmade art, a little later in the day.
