Typing Table

This beautiful and functional piece exclusively uses traditional joinery and can be used as an end table or a smart laptop table. The graceful arches across the long sides of the table compliment the fan details on the shorter ends, as well as provide solid structural support. The table top is an acrylic polymer finish designed to show the African Padauk wood in its truest color. The joinery techniques include collars, tenons, and rivets. The table legs make use of a technique where they are tapered, and a segment of the end is slit and folded on upon themselves and then riveted to create a swelling effect at the ends.

Since I originally learned to type on a traditional electric typewriter, I was inspired to create a classic typing table. I am fond of the fan design on the table ends, which adds to the classic feel of the table. Since those formative years, I have also become fond of the backspacing concept and spell check.
