When putting the coffee tables together, I like the form of their four enclosures and the form of vertical extension. The former is like the layout of a palace in traditional Chinese architecture, somewhat similar to the courtyard coffee tables I designed before, like a siege. The difference lies in the beveled and staggered design of each unit, which allows the coffee table to be permeable in the midst of the enclosure and to have the functionality of storing books, symbolizing the tradition of the established nature. The latter, on the other hand, is closer to the Great Wall, staggered and disjointed, like scattered bricks and stones in ruins,meaningless but stretching out to imagine boundaries, the opposite of the regular combination, symbolizing the possibilities of the future.
