'Kure' is a family dining table concept created by relatively unknown Turkish designer Fatih Can Sarioz. It is pure design at its best: practical, beautiful and innovative.
Can Sarioz says his inspiration for the table came from thinking about a budding flower that can be opened and closed at will. When open, Kure becomes a full-fledged dinning table; closed, it resembles a sphere-shaped futuristic pod.
A light source fitted at the center of the table emits a blue light from the base. The table accommodates six dining chairs.
Can Sarioz received widespread accolades for the design and is working on getting Kure onto the market. "
