Attach | 3 Legs

ATTACH is a table system offering almost limitless possibilities in terms of size, shape and design. Troels Grum-Schwensen has taken a novel approach to exploring and developing innovative furniture designs, where gravity locks or stabilises the structure, for decades now. The aim has always been to offer the greatest possible freedom for the user. In an ambitious collaboration with Lammhults, the designer has now taken his design philosophy to new heights with a table system that, using just a few simple basic elements, can be adapted to suit a variety of rooms and offers scope for modifications over time.

The ATTACH table consists of a frame and legs of recycled aluminium. Table tops of almost any format can be matched with this simple structure. The most common table formats, such as rectangle, square and circle, can also be supplied in exact sizes to suit customer requirements. To the centimetre. Combined with a wide selection of table top materials and a choice of colours for the legs, Lammhults is offering a mass-produced yet unique table that can be freely adapted to the specific room and environment. The collaboration with Lammhults has also resulted in the simplest ever leg attachment solution in Troels Grum-Schwensen’s many years of research into furniture innovations. The legs attached under the table frame do not need to be screwed, threaded or twisted into position. You merely attach them to the frame in one simple step and then the leg locks itself into place with the aid of gravity when weight is put on the table. Hence the name ATTACH.

Thanks to the simplicity of the attachment method for the table legs, the user can decide on the position of the legs themselves, taking into account the position and width of chairs and other factors. There’s no need for the table legs to be in the way of those seated at the table! Accordingly, the ATTACH design is also sufficiently strong to cope with long table tops supported by just a few legs – on rectangular tables there can be up to 3 metres between table legs, while larger round tables require only 3 legs. This gives ATTACH a very airy look, which is further emphasised by the distinct, transparent configuration of the legs – just as important as the actual material for the overall look of the table. Troels Grum-Schwensen on the ATTACH table: “Freedom is the key word and the seated person is the reference point. With ATTACH it is not the table setting the limits!”
