A circular design for a reason, the SK3 Table is deliberate in its intention of encouraging intimacy and interaction when in use. Designed to partner with the In Between Chair, the curvature of the design takes inspiration from the curve of the chair’s backrest, and the legs of the legs of the table reflect the angles of the chair legs. That being said, the beauty of the table’s slim silhouette and simple aesthetic make it an ideal match for any chair, in any setting. The SK3, along with all of this family of tables, are created using the traditional woodturning technique to shape wood, the result is a dining table with the uncanny ability to blend simplicity with beauty.
Sami Kallio was born in Helsinki, Finland, and moved to Gothenburg, Sweden, at the age of two. In Kallio’s own words, his work combines the melancholy of the Finnish design heritage with the humour of the Swedish tradition.
In 2009, Kallio co-founded the Gothenburg-based furniture manufacturer Brikolör. The company aims to produce furniture with a guaranteed technical durability of 300 years. In 2011, he established Sami Kallio Studio, and launched his first collection, The Finnish Blood in Me.
