Adria Side Table

Adria Side Table

Adria Side Table is an award-winning furniture design that exemplifies the harmonious fusion of traditional Indonesian craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics. Created by emerging Indonesian designer Carolina Arsad, this innovative side table showcases a distinctive curvilinear form that draws inspiration from traditional Indonesian design elements while addressing modern lifestyle needs. The piece features a thoughtful combination of premium materials, incorporating sungkai wood and terrazzo, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and durability in furniture design. Standing at 450mm in height with a diameter of 400mm, the table's proportions are carefully calculated to provide optimal functionality while maintaining an elegant presence. The design philosophy behind the Adria emphasizes the concept of 'flow,' representing the dynamic nature of contemporary living through its organic forms and material juxtaposition. Completed in December 2021 in Jakarta, this versatile piece is engineered to complement various interior settings, from living rooms to office spaces, showcasing a perfect balance between playful aesthetics and timeless appeal. The design's excellence has been recognized with an Iron A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category, acknowledging its innovative approach to material usage, aesthetic appeal, and functional design principles. The table's construction reflects meticulous attention to detail, with the terrazzo top providing a striking contrast to the warmth of the sungkai wood base, creating a visual dialogue between traditional craftsmanship and modern design sensibilities.
