The LEAF low table, designed by Martin Smid, is a unique piece that combines form and function in an innovative way. The table can be used as a standalone piece or combined with other tables to create different compositions. The design of the table is inspired by the shape of a fresh spring leaf, giving it a subtle and optically lightweight appearance.
One of the standout features of the LEAF low table is the plastic table board relief of leaf venation. This intricate detail is achieved using an NC laser cutter, adding a touch of elegance to the design. The thin metallic angular profile pedestal complements the leaf-shaped table board, creating a harmonious and visually appealing piece.
The LEAF low table comes in three different sizes, each with its own unique proportions and leaf table board tinge. From spring and summer green to autumn red, there is a color option to suit every taste and interior design style. The versatility of the LEAF low table allows it to seamlessly blend into any space, whether it be a living room, office, or outdoor patio.
The construction of the LEAF low table is made using metal profiles and HPL compact for the table board. This combination of materials ensures durability and longevity, making the table suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The design of the LEAF low table is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, providing a stable surface for various purposes.
The LEAF low table was designed by Martin Smid and was realized in Prague. The project started in April 2012 and was completed in September 2012. It was later exhibited at the Milan Design Week in April 2013, showcasing its unique design and innovative features.
The LEAF low table has received recognition for its outstanding design. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category in 2014. This prestigious award is bestowed upon designs that demonstrate creativity, resourcefulness, and technical skills. The LEAF low table stands out for its incorporation of best practices in art, science, design, and technology, contributing to improvements in quality of life.
