14 DAY TRIAL // Bring your latex suits everyone and let's have an S and M party! Or let's just stare at this apparently robotic table. It seems that today, everything can be art, since New Yorker Victor Vetterlein already invented a table that metaphorically punishes just about anyone who gazes upon it. The nerve it has!
The table is an ultra modern item, and the first piece of the new collection Victor Vetterlein. The Meeraboo-2007 ST-1 side table looks futuristic enough to give me the creeps, and make me think about UFOs and extraterrestrial forces. What really scares me most is the way the designer chose to present its exhibition item, by revealing some censored Asian fetishism behavior. Everything is possible in art!
However, the table The ST-1 is designed to sit near the front door and provide a convenient place to chuck keys, mobiles, GPS, or whatever you may carry in your UFO (I mean 'purse').
In addition, it has a bright yellow spot so that chucking doesn't lead to your important gewgaws being lost in the dark in your room. The Meeraboo table is composed of fiberglass, metal and wood with a high classy gloss finish. It comes available in white, and features measures of 36" high, 36" wide, and 12" deep.
The light is encased in an orb with a gold lacquer; the soft light emitted casts an elliptical glow on the ceiling, but spot looks rather like a giant mouth that's going to swallow the poor sexy tied girl.
According to Vetterlein, the table is a: "Reminiscent of the hermit crab that takes possession of abandoned items on the ocean floor for camouflage and protection, the organic lower portion of the side table appears to be clinging to the underside of the table."
I guess this is a great furniture item for any enthusiastic sadist or masochist. Private enclaves, chill out and party space also included? Maybe!
