Out of the Ordinary: Design With Distinctive Dimensions

-

I’m a bit obsessive when it comes to keeping my home free of clutter, though I prefer a term with a more positive connotation, like extremely orderly. Anything that doesn’t serve a decorative purpose must be stowed away, or it will endlessly irritate my strict sense of organization. Even remote controls and daily necessities like my cell phone and wallet need to have their own place when I’m not using them.

When I came across the Gingko Light bamboo coffee table, I instantly knew that designer Ken Tomita must feel the same way. With a smaller tray built in underneath this funky piece, my fixation can finally be appeased. In addition, its distinctive levels and dimensions give this eco-modern table a unique flair, and the contrast of light and dark shades add to its contemporary appeal.
