Maidan Table

A Unique and Versatile Table Design by Viktor Kovtun

The Maidan Table is a one-of-a-kind design inspired by the intricate structure of insects. With its innovative features and practicality, it is suitable for both office and home use.

The Maidan Table, designed by Viktor Kovtun, takes its inspiration from the insect world. The table legs resemble the tarsus of an insect, while the connection of the legs resembles an insect's head. This unique design element adds a touch of creativity and whimsy to the table.

What sets the Maidan Table apart from other designs is its versatility and functionality. It is designed to accommodate four people comfortably, making it ideal for both professional and personal settings. The legs of the table are made of steel tubes, providing stability and durability. The ease of assembly and the affordability of transportation are also key features of this design, making it a practical choice for those who value convenience.

The Maidan Table is made using a combination of materials, including glass, metal tubes, and wooden junctions and connectors. These materials not only contribute to the table's aesthetic appeal but also ensure its longevity and strength. With dimensions of 1200mm in length, 730mm in width, and 750mm in height, the table offers ample space for various activities.

This eco-friendly design is a result of extensive research on insects and their unique characteristics. By incorporating elements from an insect's body into the table's structure, the designer has created a visually striking piece of furniture. The emphasis on eco-design is evident in the table's minimal use of materials and its efficient form.

Overcoming the challenge of combining an insect-like appearance with easy installation was no easy feat. However, Viktor Kovtun successfully achieved this balance, resulting in a design that is both visually appealing and user-friendly.

The Maidan Table was created in Odessa in February 2014. Its innovative design and practical features have earned it recognition in the design community. The table was awarded the Iron A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category in 2014. This prestigious award is given to designs that demonstrate a high level of practicality, innovation, and professional standards.

With its unique design, versatility, and practicality, the Maidan Table is a standout piece of furniture that adds a touch of creativity to any space. Whether used in an office or a home, this table is sure to impress with its insect-inspired aesthetic and functional features.
