Furniture / JUNO

Campaign furniture for the modern nomad 

Juno is a concept piece developed in for the MSc Industrial Design Engineering Thesis at the University of Twente.

Designed to combat furniture waste through retention and repurposing

Juno is a multipurpose table with quick release legs that allows the user to customise their furniture piece to suit their unique living style and taste.     

User-friendly design

Inspired by bicycle technology, a quick release clamp, encased in the solid ash top, allows the users to quickly assemble the table.

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.  

Accessible design

JUNO legs can be easily changed by the user without the use of tools or specialised skills.    

Addressing accommodation issues

The short supply of accommodation in metropolitan areas is resulting in more people sharing smaller spaces. JUNO helps renters to make the most of their space through adaptability. The slimline shelf allows the user to stow away remnants of the working day and transform the unit into a dining table.

Designing for identity

The legs can be quickly and easily changed to transform the unit into a coffee table or kitchen counter. The user can also customise Juno to complement their personality by selecting mid-century modern or Memphis-inspired legs.
