STEAM TABLE

STEAM TABLE is a small table that, like the most disruptive Gufram creations, challenges traditional concepts of perception and proportion. Designed by Studio Job, this whimsical piece is composed of two elements: a pot that resembles a magical cauldron and the vaporous smoke that emerges and rises, forming the table top.

The shiny pot at the base of STEAM TABLE seems to come straight out of a mythical forge, with its golden and bronze tones. The cloud of smoke, on the other hand, achieves its soft and sinuous appearance thanks to Gufram’s typical soft polyurethane. This material, carefully carved and sculpted, allows the creation of shapes that appear unaffected by gravity and time.

STEAM TABLE represents a moment frozen in time: a jet of dense, clear smoke that comes out of a pot and does not run out, but remains straight and solid. What better product to bring a touch of ironic surrealism into a traditional domestic environment? STEAM TABLE by Studio Job is perfect for making any space a contemporary fairytale.

Studio Job was founded in 1998 by Job Smeets combining traditional and modern techniques to produce once-in-a-lifetime objects. At once highly specific and yet entirely universal, personally expressive and yet experimental, Studio Job has crafted a body of work that draws upon classical, popular, and contemporary design and highly visual and sculptural art.
The work Studio Job creates is heraldic and regal even in its imagery. As sleek as the finished work can be, it is also instinctual and almost primal.
