Coffee Table with a Horizontal Storage System
Croatian design studio Brigada has presented a coffee table that has a horizontal storage system which is a continuation of the worktop. A surface of almost any table eventually turns into a makeshift storage: with books, magazines, folders and so on. To avoid this circumstance the XX century furniture manufacturers decided to add few narrow sections for newspapers and magazines to the main structure of the coffee table or a desk. Horizontal storage system is much better because one needn't to bend down to see the names of books and magazines, they are clearly visible from above. There is also a shelf in the space under the table top .The Coffee table is released in a limited edition by BMV inženjering, but it is possible that this year the table will go into series production.
