as one of the most important communal gathering places at home, the kitchen table has historically served just two functions: a place for eating and working. the table for two by german designer daniel liss creates a scenario for easily transitioning between the two tasks – utilizing a series of folding components to achieve a fully transformable volume. in seconds, the concept changes from a basic dining table that accommodates six, to a complete workstation with fully retractable drawers and a surface divider.
