Drip Table
Emiliano Godoy recently designed the stunning looking ‘drip table’, which is manufactured by Pirwi + Proteak. The piece is made from many small pieces of FSC certified thinning teak.
‘The idea for the drip table came out of several months of thinking about the manufacturer’s capabilities and looking for a way to express them by showing their virtues. Proteak are converting old farming and grazing grounds, now nutrient depleted and unproductive, into sustainably managed (and FSC certified) teak plantations. When they buy the land, if there’s still some rainforest left they keep it and protect it.’
