There are so many unique designs for furniture these days, and each more surprising than the last. And now, this design made by Derek Pearce is surely going to amaze you, because these are truly unique.
Pearce has created some interesting coffee tables which look like animals are bathing inside of the glass. The “animals” are actually made out of wood. Pearce placed the animal sculptures inside of the glass so it would appear like they’re bathing in the glass as if it were water. These coffee tables have been nicknamed “water tables.” From hippos to dolphins to ducks – he designs the tables so the animals would be plunging in and out of the glass, which represents the water’s surface.
The result is truly amazing. Take a look below and let us know what you think about it.
