Developed for the growing nomadic generation, Juno is a multipurpose table with quick-release legs. Designed to combat furniture waste through retention and repurposing, Juno allows the user to customise their furniture piece to suit their unique living style and instantly adapt their space.
User-friendly & accessible
Inspired by bicycle technology, a quick-release clamp encased in the solid ash top allows users to quickly assemble the table without frustrating instructions.
The legs can be easily swapped without the use of tools or specialised skills, empowering the user to adapt their space instantly as they move between accommodations.
Design inspired by history
The use of bicycle technology was inspired by Marcel Breuer. As a young university lecturer at the Bauhaus, Breuer designed the first tubular steel furniture piece, the Wassily Chair, by replicating the manufacturing process used to manufacture the bicycle upon which he cycled to class.
