the ‘kaleidoscope’ table’s surface bursts in an rainbow of fractured, reflected light. modeled after handheld kaleidoscopes, andré teoman studio adapted the technology to function within various domestic settings. made to excite an otherwise boring conference, or to create a magical ambience at the dinner table, ‘kaleidoscope’ is a beacon for attention.

though still a concept, the design is theoretically able to be produced with a variety of materials. the main structure is made of darkened oak with varnished finishing. table legs can be made in brass, copper, aluminum or other RAL lacquers. legs would be attached post-shipping, allowing for flat-pack and easy interchanging by users.
