We had the distinct pleasure to interview award winning designer Claudio Sibille about their original and creative Coffee table/dinning table design work. Claudio Sibille is an award-winning industrial designer, that makes our world a better place with their original coffee table/dinning table works.
Claudio Sibille ("CS") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work Air table Coffee table/dinning table. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
CS : The idea, like most of my work is to show that thre is more than meets the eye in what looks like a simple object.
CS : This project is the result of my work in M3 where multifunctionality and space saving furniture is the main objective.
CS : Increase its exposure and therefore its chances of selling like expected.
CS : The idea was already in place when I started with this project. There are a few other designers whho worked in this concept as well, resolved somewhat differently in both operation flow and formal aspect, but still, the idea was already there. It must have taken maybe a week, from the first sketches, through the cad layout and eventually to the final renderings.
CS : I did not precisely need to solve this particular problem (the one solved by this design), but I needed to find new ways of solving space issues through furniture design in the most original and practicable way possible.
CS : The prototype stage is almost done, and then we plan to mass manufacture this item.
CS : mostly young people between the ages of 18 and 50 living in small apartments that can easily manipulate light medium sized objects in their daily basis routine.
CS : It takes inspiration from the MacBook Air, ssurely like most "air" related product names.
CS : Pencil, paper, autocad, 3d studio and lots of coffee.
