There is an increasing need to develop products that can be transported as efficiently as possible, but products designed to meet these requirements often sacrifice aesthetics to do so. As a result, people continue to purchase products that transport less efficiently.
Named after a synonym for "interweave," Complect features bent plywood legs that are woven through a solid walnut tabletop. It was designed to combine simple home assembly and high quality construction into a flat-packing table that doesn't look like one.
Complect is easy to assemble and disassemble, and requires only a screwdriver to completely remove its legs. It uses standard screws to ensure both the worry-free replacement of lost hardware and the use of a tool that is familiar to many households. Complect is 4' long by 21" wide, stands at just over 15" tall, and breaks down to a height of under 3.5" for easy storage and transportation.
Complect was a finalist in the 2011 Design Quest Furniture Competition, a competition open to students and professionals of all ages and experiences from around the world, and was displayed at the final event in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It has been featured by Yanko Design, NOTCOT, Trend Hunter, Designspiration, and other websites.
