The design idea emerges from two basic principles. First, the table should be cut out of one single piece of wood to minimize waste in production and to achieve the smallest possible package size for transport and storage. Second, you should be able to intuitively assemble and disassemble the table without any use of tools and screws.Based on these two main principles, Jeppe Utzon has created a table, where the natural structure of the wood is beautifully united with the unique carpentry joints. An example is the use of wooden wedges in the leg construction. Apart from ensuring a stable construction, the wedges also take centre stage in the visual design of the table, instead of being hidden away. To ensure stability, the table legs are secured to the tabletop by screws, but otherwise the table has been made without any use of metal and screws. So, with the wood as almost only material, the table has its very own identity, defined by a pure and simple expression.
