Brazilian architect Leandro Garcia doesn’t just design modern spaces, he designs furniture, like these side tables. The Toco Table is composed of a cylindrical wooden base with a circular glass top that allows one to see through and appreciate the beauty of the wood below.

The glass appears to hover over the top of the domed wooden base with its only connection being a brass spacer detail. The Toco Tables come in various shapes and sizes allowing for different configurations if you place them together.

Designer Yuval Tal has made a series of tables from wooden dowels wrapped with a metal ring called Chopped. The metal ring holds the wood pieces together so there’s no need for glue or screws.

Made in three sizes, the tables’ surfaces have colored parts, inspired by color blindness tests. Each table has a uniquely designed top with grey, orange or green paint and lacquer.

Sustainability is definitely a running theme in design. With our consumerist disposable society, designers are making efforts to create aesthetically pleasing designs and leaving the smallest environmental footprint as possible. From shoes to clothing to even toothbrushes, sustainability is an important concept in design. And it is no different for CastAway Furniture.
