Mensamque – Curator- JD Annual Design Awards 2019-Interior Design

Designers Reddy Siva Kumar, Ruthika Jain, and Vishal Jain’s product “Mensamque” is derived from the Latin terms Mensa (means table) and quod (means the).

Buying multifunctional furniture is a smart choice in today’s time. Considering the space crunch issue at a few places, the designers have curated amulti-utility table. The product is inspired by Geometry which has been used as a basis for the construction of altars since the Vedic times, hence maintaining the traditional aspect and sticking to the simple geometric shape.

The Designers have shaped the product in such a manner, that it can be moved or carried easily.  The main focus of the table is its folding features. The Designers have used 36 Hinges to give flexibility to the table which makes it easy to fold.

Mensamque has two functions. Firstly, when the legs are folded (with the help of hinges) and reversed on the floor, it can be used to play a LUDO game. Secondly, when the table is made to stand on the floor, it can be used to play chess or can be used as a side table. The essence of this product lies in the diversity and multi-functionality, as it can be used for recreational purposes or it can be put to use as a table. The materials used to build this aesthetically pleasing product are Pinewood and Hinges which is 100% recyclable and eco-friendly.
