The Omni table is a table designed for a unique space but makes every space unique. Originally designed for a small Beijing apartment with a deep narrow living space. The table became the only piece of furniture in the room and thus defines the space and its use.

Its freeform tabletop breaks away from the rigid lines of the white space, introducing a sense of fluidity and movement, while the square base grounds it in the geometric language of the space. Earlier iterations emphasized contrast even more boldly, but this final design embraces a subtler, yet still striking, interplay between harmony and opposition.

The tabletop is carefully shaped to offer two primary dining spots with clear views to the outside, while maintaining a layout that encourages openness and conversation. Ideal for hosting, the Omni Table comfortably seats eight and serves as the heart of any gathering.

The table was sold by OLSSON & GERTHEL, now Nordiska Galleriet 1912 for the European market frpm 2012 to 2023. As of 2025, I am producing and selling the table directly through my online shop. This version is made in solid ash, black-stained or white-pigmented. Sizes 200x118 cm and 240x118 cm.

For the Chinese market, Omni is produced and sold by ZaoZuo. This version is made in gloss-painted MDF and the size is 160x97 cm.
