Achilles Heel is a table inspired by today’s culture of maximalism, which is fueled by the ideal of acquiring more and more. Achilles Heel challenges this notion, playing to the idea of fragility. The design explores its theme through creating unique spaces within the table that are waiting to be discovered and explored.
