Sphaera Table By Jesse Visser

Sphaera table by Jesse VisserMaterial: AluminiumDimensions: 200 x 200 x 77 cm (L x D x H)Sphaera is a large, round aluminium table with a diameter of 200 cm. The table surface is 6 mm thick and curved, caused by a spectacular production process.A 6 meter wide industrial machine is used to force the aluminium in a curved shape.Thanks to this curved shape, the table becomes constructive and rigid. The refined details of the removable legs complete the design. The Sphaera stimulate the senses (in a poetic way) because it’s hard to perceive ifthe surface is ?at or curved. Simultaneously ones the table is set, all the tableware will direct to one imaginary centerpoint in space. The Sphaera is a limited edition.Jesse VisserJesse Visser’s work has been exhibited in, among others; Milan, New York, Cologne, London, Frankfurt, Tallin, and in the Netherlands.Jesse Visser enjoys various collaborations with labels, craftsmen, product developers, industry- and other creative thinkers.
