Designer Karen Lee has developed an experimental communal table, made from a combination of hard wood and ceramics.

Macaroni for Every Being attempts to find new systems that oscillate between our known human understanding of them and that of the objects' experience of inhabiting those structures.

Some of these structural design experiments explore the "in-betweenness" of objects, in terms of their value as both functional furniture and as empathetic objects that can possess their own agency.

​The results range from table-top vessels to full-scale ambiguous forms that could potentially be a low table.

This project has been longlisted in the furniture design project category of Dezeen Awards 2020.
