Octopia by ArteNemus is a table based on the morphology of an octopus. The design is based on a central body with an ellipsoid shape. Eight organically shaped legs and arms emerge radially and extend from this central body. A glass top emphasizes visual access to the structure of the creation. Octopia's three-dimensional appearance is underlined by the contrast between the color of the wood veneer on the surfaces and the wood color of edges. Octopia's high-end appearance is emphasized by the use of wood species of exceptional quality and by outstanding workmanship.
