Mirror Banquet Table by Josh Rubin
Lwindesign's Mirror Banquet Table would make a stunning addition to any dining room. Modular in design, the full layout seats 20, but can be reconfigured to seat 10. Impracticalities aside, the piece adds a whole new perspective to mealtimes. Made locally in Brooklyn, it's available by request from Lwindesign. More images after the jump.

EcoSystems Furniture
by Laura Neilson This past weekend's Bklyn Designs show was host to an array of local designers and manufacturers, including EcoSystems brand bamboo furniture. The green-minded company utilizes a innovative tool-free assembly system that relies on interlocking aluminum pieces rather than nuts, bolts and screws, allowing for construction of the brand's modern-looking Bamba chair in a matter of minutes—a godsend for the Ikea-weary. In addition...

Hunn Wai for Mein Studio Gallery: Ping-Pong Dining Table
Shanghai-based (and Design Academy Eindhoven-trained) designer Hunn Wai's new Ping-Pong table for Mein Studio's Gallery space takes Ping Pong back to its Victorian roots as an after dinner game played in dining rooms. Made with Corian, the table top-cum-playing surface features a Rococo design routed from the material and filled with gold lacquer. Hand-lathed wood legs are a nod to the original. We asked...

Cool Hunting Video Presents: Kiel Mead, Jewelry and Furniture Designer

In this video, we visit his Brooklyn studio where he shows...

Bradley Price: Angle Parking
For the forthcoming ICFF in New York, Brooklynite Bradley Price was one of eight designers selected by Bernhardt Design to be featured in the ICFF Studio, a new platform for showcasing prototypes during the furniture fair. Bradley's design, "Angle Parking," is a clever take on the ubiquitous—and often boring—bookcase. By skewing the angle of the bookends to 45°, the shelving can accommodate 12½" deep...
