Sancal Elipse

sancal-elipse-main1

Inspired by the male spirit, designer Rafa Garcia has come up with a stylish, innovative coffee table that is also functional in usage. The ‘Sancal Elipse’ features an upper surface that looks as if it’s levitating in the air, giving off a mystic look to the furniture. The table is created with a metal structure in F1 steel tube polished in epoxy coating, while the upper and bottom surfaces are carved out of lacquered high frequency pressed MDF (medium-density fibreboard). The ‘Sancal Elipse’ is available in two different dimensions: rectangular measuring 1140mm x 700mm and square 1140mm x 1140mm, while the height (350mm) remains same in both measurements. Available at online modern design superstore Nest.

[...] Coming in black or white lacquer, the table can be square or rectangle, for £773 and £991 respectively. The fiber-board top and bottom are held together by an enamel-coated steel tube which is hard to see at some angles, giving the impression that the top half just floats there. I’m not contemporary art critic, but I think it says a lot, starting with: “Yes, it is true, everything but my arms are hyperdimensionally encoded in the top half of this table sandwich. But hey, I’m all good.” [SwipeLife] [...]

[...] Sure, you expect a $1,000+ table to make a statement, but few are as complex as Rafa Garcia’s gravity-defying table with protruding forearms, allegedly a celebration of “the male spirit.” Coming in black or white lacquer, the table can be square or rectangle, for £773 and £991 respectively. The fiber-board top and bottom are held together by an enamel-coated steel tube which is hard to see at some angles, giving the impression that the top half just floats there.

[...] Puede que esta mesa no desafíe realmente la ley de la gravedad, pero su precio (866 euros el modelo cuadrado y 1.110 el modelo rectangular) desafía la ley de la recesión. No se puede negar que el diseño, obra de un tal Rafa García (perdónenme si no le conozco), es elegante y que el tubo de acero cubierto de esmalte que une la parte de abajo y la de arriba no se ve desde ciertos ángulos y da la impresión de que levita. Mágicamente, claro. Luego están esos brazos que surgen de la nada, otro toque elegante pero ligeramente gore, al menos para los que hemos visto las primeras películas de Peter Jackson. Para mí, no, gracias. — Rafa M. Claudín [Swipelife] [...]
