("") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work . Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
: Currently the design is not in production. Hopefully it can make it's way to being produced.
: I started designing this in Januari 2016 and finished it by the end of June 2016. In total it took about 6 months
: When doing my internship I was never assigned a project to focus on thus I had to pursuit my own interests. This lead to focusing on daily problems with everyday furniture.
: The design is currently not being produced. If a company would be interested in the design they can always approach me with a proposition.
: A repeating problem that I saw all too often where people do not find a proper place for their bags or purses.
: No, this was a design that was worked out and produced by myself as part of my thesis.
: The main targets are public places, cafes, restaurants. The design would be used to ease up certain activities such as storing/hanging the customers bag/purse.
: The way the added function is integrated makes the design more unique than other bistro tables.
: Because of my greek roots I always try to implement some greek into the names. 'Trapezi' meaning table and 'pesi' meaning falling in greek were merged together into one word.
: I started by sketching and brainstroming which lead to the making of small prototypes. After the desired concept was achieved I modelled the design in a 3D software. By making use of my 3D file I produced some of the parts myself, other more difficult parts were made by specialized companies. Finally I assembled and finished everything myself.
: The folds at each end are such a noticable design aspect that it can be used to create a whole product family. It combines function and aesthetic into one piece and thus resulting to the saying 'form follows function'.
: I created this design all by myself, some parts were made by specialized companies but of course everything had to be paid for, there were no collaborations.
: Some parts of the table had to be produced by more modern production techniques as everything has to fit perfectly together.
: At the start of my brainstorming I wanted to make sure that the problem I saw many people faced with was really there. Thus I created an online enquete asking people if they have ever encountered such a problem.
: As a student you have a limited budget, this is why 90% of the work was done by myself including the production.
: Creating this latest work of mine I realized how much my skills have improved and how much can be achieved in 3 years.
: If a company is interested in the design they can always contact me with a proposition.
