Side/Coffee table (2023)

“Namti” is a set of side tables designed with the thought of it being adaptable. Each piece can be customized to color and finish with different sizing options available for the table top. The connection is easy to assemble, being based on a single mold for casted aluminum legs. The structural inspiration comes from a French built railway bridge designed In the early 1900s for a mountain valley located in Pingbian, Yunnan, China.

The Faux Namti Bridge, also known as Wujiazhai Railway Bridge, or as the Inverted V Bridge, is a single-span railway bridge located in Wantang Township of Pingbian County, in the Nanxi River valley region in the Chinese province of Yunnan.
