Baris Coffee Table
The Baris Coffee Table is an exploration of our interactions with the everyday. Subdued modulations in the tabletop become sublime haptic experiences. Firmer than water, the surface reacts as if slow motion were at your fingertips. Yet the movement is subtle enough that the table remains functional. Full glasses sway like buoys with unfazed seagulls perched on top; rocking, but not spilling. The table's top surface is easily removable, though, in case someone does spill.
