Echo tables

Blending metal and wood, the Echo table collection by UUfie studio is an experimental project that plays with the interaction between materials and shapes.

UUfie studio combined the malleability of metal with the qualities of wood, creating a table series called Echo, where these two contrasting materials become one, and their perception is altered. The project is made by using an experimental technique where metal is forged in relationship with the wood’s growth cycle.

  Each of the tables is made from a composite of wood that tapers out at the edges and blends into metal. The table tops are made in three different sizes and rest on slender legs that emphasize a slightly curved bottom and narrow section in the middle. The variations in the table top render shapes that are organic, allowing activity and motion around the table to be natural within the space. The tables are made of aluminum, copper, and brass, and – as a result – feature contrasting gradients of colour.
