folding table by Gustav Hassenpflug

Another great design that came out of the Bauhaus, the Folding Table by Gustav Hassenpflug.

This is a design that is often imitated even today, nearly 80 years after the original was designed in 1928. It’s proof that good design and good ideas never get old or outdated. The Bauhaus workshops produced much of what we still consider modern today, even after almost a century.

This folding table is made of wood and when fully closed is only 9cm wide (that’s less than 4 inches). Fine craftsmanship and world class design made the Bauhaus famous.
