From Extendable Dining Table… to a Coffee Bar
This new design was inspired by clients who wanted a custom dining table that could be extendable but without a leaf. They wanted to be able to use both table pieces to extend the length of the table when hosting guests and use the second piece for a coffee bar when they didn’t need the table as full length.
We used local arbutus slabs that were sustainably harvested on Vancouver Island and then we casted the arbutus slabs in opaque white epoxy resin. We created the table as one piece to start so that the flow of the design was the same for both table pieces when they came together, and then cut them to create two tables with the dimensions that the client wanted. We then finished the table with a custom base with U shaped legs in a similar white color to match the epoxy color.
We were extremely happy with this design and it is now a part of our Willow Groove custom design options. Clients can come to us with their ideal dimensions and color or epoxy (or choose to do all wood) and we can assist them in choosing the species of wood and slabs that may best suit their project.
We are looking forward to designing the next one! Would you like an extendable table? Would you use the extendable piece for a coffee bar perhaps? An entrance table or side table?
