FACES Occasional Table
Anthropomorphic figures or wooden blocks? While playing with perspectives and optical illusions, Nathan Yong reveals a gentler and more relaxed side to the art of designing. With a clear human approach, the Faces tables reflect our desire to unmask ourselves. Artistic and provocative, they are rooted in the essence of Sancal. In order to create functional tables, the designer moves away from traditional aesthetics, using unusual shapes which change their appearance depending on the angle of vision. In this sense, the small details are not superfluous, as they add volume and allow Faces to go from being an animated object to an abstract piece.
