Dodici | Hyper Adaptable Work Surface
Mechanical table doubles in size to adapt to a designers changing needs. ‘It is therefore indisputable that the limbs of architecture are derived from the limbs of man.’ – Michelangelo Dodici (Italian for 12), is the result of the minor project completed at NTU ADBE. A mechanical support structure allows the table to adapt from full to half size effortlessly. With a single movement, six arms rotate through 180 degrees of motion to provide a new platform for the second sheet of Borosilicate glass – ideal for larger scale work, or group projects.
Extra space attracts clutter (Pheasant’s Principle of Ergonomic Decay) - Dodici helps to maximise creativity and productivity by accommodating to the ever changing needs of todays designer.
Originally inspired by the sculptural furniture seen whilst on placement year in Milan under Italian design studio Sawaya & Moroni, the human-like forms are designed using ratio and proportionate systems; such as the table top being a perfect Golden Rectangle.
