Meta Cell: A Futuristic Pool Table Inspired by Aliens

A Unique Blend of Design, Technology, and Curiosity

The Meta Cell is a pool table that takes inspiration from the mysterious signs left by aliens on our planet. Designed by Abbas Sufi Nejad, this project aims to encourage thinking and reasoning while creating an emotional connection between users and the creatures from other planets.

The Meta Cell pool table stands out with its futuristic design and soft silhouettes, allowing it to seamlessly fit into any environment. Made with fiber-reinforced plastic and raw materials, it offers exceptional stability. The top surface features a glazed finish, making it easy to clean and preserving its genuine beauty for years to come.

Utilizing advanced manufacturing techniques such as CNC milling and 3D printing, the Meta Cell pool table is a testament to the possibilities of modern design. The use of fiber-reinforced plastic ensures durability, while the polyurethane color coat adds a touch of elegance.

With dimensions of 157(W) x 281.5(L) x 85(H) cm, the Meta Cell pool table weighs a total of 480 kg, with the stone plate alone weighing 300 kg. It can withstand a load of up to 1100 kg, ensuring its longevity and stability.

The Meta Cell pool table not only offers a functional and aesthetically pleasing gaming experience but also serves as a conversation starter. Its unique design, inspired by the protective symbols of aliens, sparks curiosity and invites users to explore the unknown.

Designed in Tehran in 2022, the Meta Cell pool table is the result of extensive research and countless sketches. Abbas Sufi Nejad aimed to create a piece of furniture that is not only visually striking but also meaningful. By incorporating the signs of creatures from space into the design, the Meta Cell pool table establishes an emotional connection between the object, aliens, and the users.

The Meta Cell pool table has received recognition for its innovative design. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category in 2022. This prestigious award celebrates designs that exhibit creativity, resourcefulness, and technical excellence, contributing to improvements in quality of life.

Experience the future with the Meta Cell pool table, where design, technology, and curiosity converge.
