dBodhi Knut Coffee Table

The dBodhi Knut Coffee Table has handwoven abaca sides and a removable reclaimed teak top, measuring 100cm square and 36cm high. Lift the top off and the base becomes a storage basket. The teak is left in its natural unfinished state.

The removable top is the feature that justifies this over a conventional coffee table. Underneath sits an open woven body, so the piece doubles as concealed storage for throws, magazines or the clutter that otherwise lives on the floor beside a sofa.

That also lets it change function entirely. Top on, it is a table. Top off, a basket. Cushion on top, an ottoman. In a small living room where every piece has to justify its footprint, that flexibility is worth more than a dedicated table would be. Abaca is a banana-family fibre, tougher and more moisture-resistant than most natural weaves, which is why it survives use as a structural body rather than only a decorative surface.
