Zero-In, 2005

Zero-In Low Table by Barber Osgerby for Established + Sons.

Constructed from an apparently seamless ribbon of moulded polyester with a satin finish, the Zero-In low table is an exercise in restrained form.

The table appears to hover slightly above the ground. A glass top is barely visible, giving the impression that objects placed upon it are unsupported. A dual wall construction provides another visual illusion, looking into the table its sides seem to converge at a greater pitch than expected.

The design was developed using sophisticated production techniques usually reserved for car manufacture.
