Raster side table by Jeffrey A Day The Raster side table interacts with people by using the concept of building solids out of individual cubes of space. In this case 20mm blocks were the driving factor. Raster gives the illusion that this table is in the process of being made by assembling these blocks; conversely, it can be interpreted as a dissolving table.

Setback Coffee Table by Jeffrey A Day The qualities that Setback has are twofold. First, the design starts a non verbal dialog between user and product; this is accomplished by the random flowers cut through the material to show a shadow on the ground. Secondly, The shadow changes with the light source that illuminates the room giving it a different shadow pattern, similar to a sundial giving the time based on the moving sun placement.

Stems_CT_03 coffee table by Jeffrey A Day Stems_CT_03 is inspired by stems, leaves and seed pods that hang from trees. The structural tubing or “stems” act as the foundational base of the piece, and is the vehicle for the design. The stems rise above the table surface and add another dimension to the piece. The Table surfaces “seed pods “are designed to be a trilogy of ovals randomly overlapping in a dominate, sub-dominate and subordinate layout. Stems_CT_03 is a whimsical look at tree pods and stems.

YRH_CT coffee table by Jeffrey A Day The most interesting quality to the YRH_CT is that the shape is recognizable, and interesting due to the "bowl" feature; as evident in the location icon so commonly used in today’s Smartphone’s and laptops. The off-set legs of the base are designed to accommodate stability for the squared off corner as well as a design detail.

Levels_CT coffee table by Jeffrey A Day Levels concept meets the needs of how people use tables, some like it high, some like it low. Overlapping simple shapes make up the stepped planes while adding a bit more usable surface area that it also creates shadows for visual interest. Bending tubes form the central support column that peel off to provide the support for the surfaces in an unusual way.

Ashtray_CT Table by Jeffrey A Day In developing the Ashtray coffee table, the idea was to take some of our societies outmoded or benign products and give them a new life; to alter the “image” of how we interpret these shapes. The Ashtray shape for example carries with it a connotation of being unhealthy, smoking, a passing fad, and tobacco industry; conversely, in the past it was regarded that smoking was cool, hip, sophisticated etc… From those two competing ideas, the simple shape of a dished out square transforming into a circle has no assigned meaning. The interpretation is unique to each individual.

Bubbles cocktail table by Jeffrey A Day Bubbles is a light hearten interpretation of blowing bubbles. The push and pull of the table surface represents each individual bubble as they would be as 5 bubble grouping. The frame's suspended tension adds a dynamic element to the table. The tension is designed to add movement to the table. The challenge is to bring attention to a type of object that's overlooked everyday on lives. The result is to capture an organically formed 3 dimensional bubble grouping into an actual product.
