The ‘Alpha’ Typography Coffee Table

A post by George

Type Table 1 Type Table 2 Type Table 3

Just found this rather lovely table over on the Crate & Barrel website, gotta be a must for the typographers out there!

“This one-of-a-kind conversation table was inspired by a Paris flea market find, then designed exclusively for us by a London graphic designer with a penchant for, and a large personal collection of, antique printers’ blocks. Iconic top is carved from one single piece of wood with raised letters and numbers painted in 10 different colors. Vintage crackled finish varies slightly from table to table and adds to the “as found” charm. Top is protected with tempered glass and framed modern in a soft black powdercoated steel base.”
