Polyhedra Modular Coffee Table by Haldane Martin

Haldane Martin of Cape Town, South Africa designed this complex three-dimensional Polyhedra Modular Coffee Table. The design was inspired by the images of human bones that are seen by electron microscopes, as well as the Weaire-Phelan structure, which depicts foam bubbles that are equal in size. Each shape is connected with built-in magnets so the table can be reconfigured making it what they describe as “LEGO for grown-ups.”

Thanks, Marike!
