No Visible Means of Support
Jan 30, 2010
OK, I can see it’s cantilevered. But I can’t help feeling it would look better if it did have some other visible means of support. Design that appears to flout the laws of physics can be eye-catching, arresting, thought-provoking. But in the kitchen, how would it be once the novelty has worn off? I think I’d find it constantly uncomfortable (via).

It certainly provoked my thoughts, anyway. What do you think?

Boing! Boing! I’m going for the double summersault with pike.

That bothers me out of the gate and would continue to bother me for a long time. I love a clever cantilever, but that’s just too much. Maybe if it had chairs around it…

Francois, you get the Gold Medal – just mind your head on the bounce

Paul, Cheryl – yeah, no controversy here. A case of trying too hard to be different.
