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?

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.

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…”

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

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.
