The Junction end table was inspired by the amazing infrastructure of highway intersection ramps, specifically Atlanta's "spaghetti junction," when viewed from above.
Junction was developed using Rhino to create a piece that exhibits elegant curves and a precise fit using minimal connectors.

A quarter scale model was built in order to be displayed at ICFF 2010. The walnut sections were represented by thermoformed and veneered polystyrene. The concrete center pieces were created by cnc formed Corian.
