This isn’t new, but it’s cool enough that you’ll want to check it out. Let’s say you need to buy a table, but you also want a skirt. What do you do? Well, why not buy a both at once? Something that you can use to set your coffee on, then when you are going out, just wear it. That’s exactly what this is – a table and a skirt in one.
It comes from the mind of Hussein Chalayan. Afterwords is a series of furniture designs that you can use in the home and also wear. It’s designed as an expression of the experience of refugees who have to leave their homes quickly while carrying essential household objects with them. This piece certainly conveys just that.
The wooden rings of this table cascade out to form a hoop skirt. Fashion and furniture have collided. Hey, where did my table go? It just ran out the door!
