Today's ArchiPic is something that I don't ever see and don't normally post about. It is a coffee table made so that small living rooms could fit it in with all that hassle of a normal-size coffee table. So how do you fix that problem? Brazilian designer Fabio Teixeira made a giant Rubik's Cube and you can probably guess what he made out of it! It is a Rubik's cube coffee table. Yes, I said a Rubik's Cube coffee table! (Keep in mind that this is just a design and not a real thing yet.)
It was constructed and put together with glue, so there were no interior supports, and the pieces of the cube were put together through wood dowel pins. You can actually move the pieces of this mobile coffee table like a real Rubik's Cube, and surprisingly, it gets even better from there.
"The project uses no glue and the pieces are put together through wood dowel pins, resulting in a furniture with 526x526x520mm dimensions. The materials used are sheets of plywood and the finish is made with lacquer ink," says Teixeira. There's one last thing I have to say about this intuitive design: unbelievable!
