Whimsical Coffee Table Feeds On UFOs & Candies As Yummy Inspiration

Prepare to embark on a celestial journey as UFOs and candies collide to create a seemingly out-of-this-world coffee table. This creation, aptly named the Flying Saucer Coffee Table, defies the boundaries of conventional design with its futuristic allure while evoking a sense of nostalgia and promoting an eco-conscious mindset.

Crafted by the minds at Duffy London, known for its fusion of art and furniture, and designer Joseph Wonham, this masterpiece represents a captivating addition to its renowned “art-as-furniture” collection. 

The table’s enchanting form comprises three saucer-shaped legs adorned in vibrant, candy-colored designs, gracefully leaning against one another, seemingly defying gravity as they tilt upward to provide support for a glass surface. Its base is a burst of lively hues reminiscent of gumball machines and sharing sweets with friends on the playground.

Not only does this piece stir up nostalgic sentiments, but it also encourages contemplation of a more eco-conscious future. The base is crafted from recycled materials sourced primarily from the food packaging industry, offering a tangible embodiment of sustainability.

This coffee table transports one through the cosmos while striking a harmonious balance between the wondrous innocence of childhood memories and the pressing need for a sustainable tomorrow. Now available for purchase at £16,800 (US$20,971.44), a deposit is required before you’re able to take a piece of space with you back home.
