Perfect Design for a Flatpack Trestle Table: Gumdesign’s Mastro

I’m loving the design of the Mastro Table, created for Italian manufacturer DeCastelli by Viareggio-based Gumdesign. It’s not just the clean look—it’s the perfect, elegant simplicity of proper materials exploitation.

Take a sheet of iron and it’s pretty strong. Bend the edges twice and it’s even stronger, gaining I-beam-like rigidity. And now that you’ve bent those edges, a channel is created–the perfect place to slot a crossbeam for trestle legs.
