| DESIGN NAME: Espresso Table PRIMARY FUNCTION: Coffee Table INSPIRATION: “Espresso Series” was inspired from coffee beans. Making coffee every day was a typical daily routine for Dongjoo. One day, he recognized this aspect was underestimated. His desire is to develop the unconscious moment for enjoying daily life more as well as to remind its own functionality of the table. Based on the inspiration, he firstly created Espresso Stool 2017, and launched Espresso Table 2018 as a continuing series. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Coffee tables have long been considered as just a normal furniture, and it has been used very casually and multi-functionally. However, Espresso Table is the table that reminds its own functionality which is unconsciously forgotten from people through utilizing the form of coffee bean, color, and tactile aspects. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Espresso Table is designed conceptually and structurally to meet the needs of a coffee table. The round shaped wooden top that is simplified and transformed from a coffee bean, and a thin and linear metal structure are perfectly harmonized in terms of structure as well as materiality.

For the Espresso Table, compared to Espresso Stool, it focuses more on the architectural structure and overall proportion of the table. CHALLENGE: The most challenge aspect of designing the table is to keep the overall concept of the series adding a new material. Because the coldness of metal may affect to break the warmth of the entire series. A lot of material experiments, variations, and iterations are needed for this series.
