Europeans have a knack for design. From making exquisite lamps for your interiors to luxurious furniture for the outdoors, their mastery over the craft is enthralling. Deniz Aktay is one such furniture designer who has impressed us with his artistic skills, as his renders are one of the best you’d see on the internet. The Shell table is yet another creation the German designer has presented us with.
It is a fresh and ‘light’ take on what a coffee table should look like. Boasting an extraordinary shape, the Shell table is functional, stable, and eye-catching at once. Ideal for the living room, entrance, and even kitchen, it is a cleverly designed functional piece of furniture. It not only works as a traditional coffee table but can even be used as a bench if required.
What however elevates it to be an iconic piece is the geometry of the piece. The furniture features a horizontal tabletop that artfully bends into two vertical legs. You can store items on the table and underneath it, depending on your requirement.

In a nutshell, the whole design consists of one continuous wooden sheet that has been bent and finalized into a gorgeous-looking piece of furniture. “To create such shapes you can CNC-slice plywood sheets on one side at a certain angle – this piece then will automatically create such bent and twisted shapes as you can see here in this design,” Deniz mentions.
The Shell table not only works as a storage piece of furniture but also as a bench or stool. Those pondering whether there be a prototype available can contact Deniz Aktay via his Instagram handle.
