A fabulous flex in human-centric design

In any interior space, tables need to imbue functionality with flair. They are the quiet achievers of breakout zones, the centre of attention in agile workspaces and the magic zone for brainstorms or brunches.

A fabulous flex in human-centric design

As a design studio that anchors the creative process in an understanding of the human experience, Zenith furniture solutions mirror a deep understanding of behaviour and the way places need to serve people. Their new Twiggy Table ushers in a fresh design approach for agile tables that can flex to suit a wide range of uses, scenarios and interior schemes.

In balancing cost‑effectiveness with design integrity, the design approach for Twiggy embraced reduced materiality and maximised adaptability. There are fewer parts, a lighter mass, and simplified assembly, while still achieving a sophisticated and visually distinctive aesthetic.

Responding to workplace trends, Twiggy immediately captivates with a minimalist geometry that suits both activated and more contemplative spaces.

The table form pops with colour while a four-star base balances stability and mobility in a streamlined way that echoes the slenderness of branches and stems. Laminex table tops can be specified in either single colours including timber-look, primaries or gloss, with the horizontal edge banding in either the same or a contrasting, complementary colour for visual interest and design flair. The powder coated steel base is durable, attractive and robust, with colours ranging from neutrals to bold primaries.

Twiggy is available in either circular or square forms, with heights suitable for seated use, standing height or accompanying a bench. Sizing ranges from small tables appropriate for intimate tete-a-tetes or focus solo work, through to a mid-size suitable for up to four diners or doers, and a larger size for social areas, meeting spaces or teamwork.

Both the small and the medium size Twiggy tables also offer the choice of either castors or levelling glides, while the largest size has glides for enhanced stability. In each of its iterations, the Twiggy remains lightweight, so it can easily be shifted to flex with the occasion.

The overall clean form with generous legroom dimensions suits multiple styles of seating, from office chairs or armchairs, stools, benches or couches. Twiggy belongs wherever people need a place to rest a book, a mug, a platter, a laptop, an elbow or a notepad. It can be utterly practical, while retaining the element of playfulness for casual encounters.

Having such an agile design and range of possibilities also means Twiggy can become a common element in design language across a diverse range of spaces within a commercial environment, supporting shared purpose, dynamic engagement and moments of solitary concentration equally.

This is a tangible expression of the deep understanding of human nature and diverse workstyles Zenith Design Studio has. Their ethos is anchored in creating experience-centric furniture of lasting value, fusing expertise in interior architecture and product development to create progressive, high performance workspace solutions.

The team includes product designers, mechanical engineers, product configurators, immersive experience developers and visual content creators, all engaged in translating client needs into beautiful solutions. Every product is the result of a continuous process of listening, investigating, experimenting and learning.

The Twiggy table emerges from this creative cycle, embodying the ongoing conversation between imagination, form and function.
