Arch Coffee Table

Arch is a coffee table whose legs take a multi-layered arch profile, joined with a mortise-and-tenon structure. The page frames that pairing as a meeting of contemporary form and traditional joinery rather than as a material list. Designed in 2023 for Lift Loft, Shanghai.

About

Arch Coffee Table by TONG is a sculptural coffee table designed for Lift Loft in 2023. Created in Shanghai, the piece combines a contemporary furniture language with a traditional mortise and tenon joint structure.

Its defining feature is the multi layered arch shaped leg, which gives the table a strong architectural presence while making the construction itself part of the visual identity. By bringing together a modern form and a traditional joining method, Arch Coffee Table explores how familiar craft principles can be reinterpreted within contemporary furniture design.

The result is a compact table where structure, geometry and craftsmanship are expressed as a single design gesture.
