milan design week 2017: lebanese designer nada debs offers a fresh blend of middle eastern and far eastern craftsmanships with her ‘tatami tables’ collection. through a colorful combination, the project reinterprets or rather reintroduces local furniture design for contemporary interiors.
the tatami furniture can be used as a bench
for this collection, nada debs has combined the traditional straw weaving technique — typical of japanese flooring– with the old craft of marquetry which was often used for classical old pieces. in the end, the set includes color gradient pieces with flexible functions — shifting between a table or a bench.
