Style + Creativity = Grampo Coffee Table, a unique piece created in 2013 by Fernando Mendes. It is part of a collection of furniture inspired by woodworking tools. Crafted from muiracatiara wood in a meticulous woodworking process, clamps, or “sargentos” in Portuguese, are clipped onto a glass top and used as the table’s legs. The added convenience of this table design is that it can be easily re•assembled and transported. For round or triangular tabletops, three clamps are used, and for square or rectangular tops, four clamps are used.
