Liberty Table

The Liberty table, designed by Atelier Van Lieshout, is a typical example of artwork turned into a design object, just like the earlier released Liberty Lounger. With the Liberty Table, Atelier Van Lieshout continues to address the New Tribal Labyrinth and “Arts and Crafts” movement with traditional craftsmanship and using simple forms. ​​In the New Tribal Labyrinth, Atelier Van Lieshout envisions a fictional, future- utopian- society, where people would organize themselves in tribes; while dedicating their lives to industrial production and the manufacturing of raw materials. The clean lines and the sturdy wood of the Liberty Table revoke a sense of nostalgia for rural traditions and living in the countryside while combining it with modern day luxury.
