DINING TABLE FOR TWO.
Brief
Re-design the dining platform for two, whilst taking into account user interaction and experience.
Story:
The project undertaken addresses the aesthetic and ergonomic design issues found in current dining furniture, which affect the social interactions and satisfactions within the dining for two experience. Combining a fusion of encapsulating, warm and dynamic design elements, the new concept brings social and product interactions to a new level, through the delivery of playful dining functionality.

Scenario.
When we dine as two, we often expect, accept and adapt to the standardized experience of dining which we are provided; a table and two chairs. Issues Encountered:
- Social Interaction Issues
- Product Interaction Issues
Dining is usually a decision made by those wishing to enjoy time as two and bond through food consumption. However, the table we sit at effectively acts as a barrier between us, preventing our most important signals of communication and interaction; emotion.
