18 Of The Most Magnificent Table Designs Ever
Julija Nėjė BoredPanda staff
A table is probably the most simplistic piece of furniture that we just cannot live without. Plain wooden board with four legs has so many uses that we have one specifically designed for the office, kitchen, dining room, a shop, and even for a hospital operating room. And you’ve probably never thought about it, but tables can be turned into astounding works of art and not just utilitarian pieces of furniture.
Here at Bored Panda, we can’t get over the fact that creative designers are still able to find ingenious new ways to turn table design into works of art. You’d think there’s only so many different ways to reinvent a board with four legs, but these 18 examples of brilliant and cool design will prove you wrong, and a simple coffee table decor won’t cut it to this list.
What makes these tables so remarkable is their effortless fusion of function and unique design. Each is a piece of art meant to be used, not just admired. From majestic wood log dinner tables and picnic kitchen tables to ghost coffee tables, the ways to re-invent this household property are uncountable.

May I leaf the table . . . :p
If only you wood, your jokes are abyss-mal... :)
You asked that tree times already..
Wood you swing by my place?
It's pine with me.
Maple later.
I could really log some hours sitting at these tables.
It would be nice to branch out and spruce up the house a bit.
Nut your average tables, that's for sure!
Oak K, Oak K, that's quite enough, people. My goodness, you wood bee comedians do like to prattle on. Have you no comction? No pun intended.
Oh chair up, have a heart-wood you?
I pine for the day when I can afford one of these tables.
You guys sound Pilipino.
If yew want to
I lake that table too, but I will leaf you alone :)
Did you cedar wood on the first table
You so punny.
why don't you just leaf them alone?
So beautiful. Don´t think the grass table is going to work ;)
My cats would mow it and leave yak balls all over the house!
Two words Astro Turf
Two words guinea pig :D
Actually AstroTurf is one word. :P
I was going to do something like that with wheat grass
Then you could trim it and juice it.
Does it come with ants? :-D
Ants?
do you have to mow it at all or water it
maybe, but how would you clean it?
Mowing it would be difficult!
Easy. Big scissors and some time snipping.
It would not be difficult for a bush-hog.
How bout a marijuana table
That could start a vicious cycle where you never left the table.
Amazing group of tables <3 Would like handful for myself, but most of them seem pretty expensive
