The Iris Coffe Table by Michael Bihain

I recently covered a chair by Michael Bihain which I liked, but this piece I love. It feels like an instant classic. Why? First because it’s so simple. It is a single piece of plate steel or laser cut into shape and bent precisely into its final form resembling an iris. It’s iconic, easy to understand, and maybe best of all, it’s stackable. Sure we’ve see chairs that are easily stackable, so why not tables? Michael Bihain has created a new paradigm and this is call for the design history books.
