Together with Ingot Foundry and Marine we designed and fabricated a boardroom table.
Design
The project started knowing we are going to use 2x marine propellers to support a long rectangular glass table top.
Process
The first step of my process was to offer a suitable and complimentary glass table top shape.
The superellipse was chosen by the customer and from there we refined the design.
Base design
The base was designed and fabricated by Ingot. The steel base sheet was scaled down to match the shape of the glass table top.
Alternative base and support designs
Final Dimensions
Length: 3500mm
Width: 1502mm
Height: 740mm
Fabricating the base
The base is made of laser cut steel in the same shape to match the table top. After fabrication the steel was polished.
Cutting the glass
- Specifications:
- Custom shape: 3500mm x 1502mm CNC shape with 3 holes
- 12mm low iron toughened
- Edgework: Polished edges
Installation practicalities
Before ordering the glass, we made sure the glass shape will fit in the elevator! We made a 1:1 version out of coreflute and took it up the highrise building.
The end result
