Multiple Table – Design Your Table with Magnetic Beech Poles (VIDEO)


Multiple‘ table, an amazing idea by designer Raphaël Charles that allows you to choose the shape of your furniture piece according to your aesthetical desires, needs, or the space you have available. You can choose the table’s size, form, shape and virtually any aspect of its dimensions and layout. Here’s how.

The Multiple table is consisted of as many solid beech poles as you wish. These poles are all of equal length of 15 inches (38cm) and they are magnetized, a feature that keeps them together and makes the entire structure firm and reliable. The ends of the poles are raw and left natural, which is perfect for those who love wood.

However, the amount of magnetic attraction between them is carefully chosen to ensure that placing them right next to each other will keep the structure firm, while placing them just a bit apart – in order to create a shape you desire – but not close together, will not impede the design you are after by clamming them together.

The resulting shapes are innumerable, with just some of the ideas being shown on these pictures. This kind of a table is sure to keep you inspired and interested for time to come, while allowing you to easily change the appearance of your room. However, this table is not to be used for storing very small objects, due to the fact that they can easily fall between the poles. watch video below
