Rising Furniture

Rising Furniture

Innovative furniture made by talented Dutch designer Robert van Embricqs.

Rising table, stool, and chair were inspired by the idea of creating a flat surface that was capable of transforming into a piece of furniture.

When not in use, this amazing collapsible furniture can be easily stored behind a door or under a bed.

    I have never found such chairs comfortable, but they look pretty. Throw in a few cushions, maybe?

  2. MMM

    I would love to have the table! So cool!

  3. Betty

    These are beautiful and so innovative. I’d just be so afraid I’d get my finger pinched in one of those scissor like cross bits.

    Very practical if you’re moving a lot. Very nice design..

  5. Nisa Zul

    nice… good idea.

    I agree with Betty….I don’t really feel for the chairs because it might be easier to get pinched. But I do like the table; it seems to be the most elegant.

    The table seems like an excellent proposition for a restaurant, a means to create greater turnover. Simply put a timer onboard and people will finish their meals rapidly, and be on their way, once the table begins to flatten out and the meal decend to floor-level. Of course, one must accept that idle after-dinner chit-chat could be sacrificed for such haute’ modern environs. Happily, abbreviated jibber-jabber equates to a lesser likelihood that some toff’ will speak those dreaded words … “oh, my furnishings at home are much flatter actually…”

    Creativity – 7/10
    Engineering prowess – 8.5/10

    COMFORT – 1/10

    Ooh nice design! This would be perfect for small apartments.

    Style over substance. You lose all the use of the center part of the table when a simple table with folding legs is cheaper, less moving parts, and actually usable.

    Very cool designs. Beautiful.

  14. anr493

    Very cool. Engineered very well. Doesn’t look extremely comfortable but that can always be fixed.

  15. jon

    Looks cool but are they comfortable?

  16. Richard

    Fantastic! I could see this as easy to hall, classy camping furniture. Maybe add a glow-ball light to the center of the table with a soft slope.
