We know the disadvantages of the consumer society. They only make products to last for a short period of time, so you can always buy the newest ones. Combining this with todays obsession with pixels, Studio 1am designed the self-destruct table.

“Made of concrete “pixels,” each time a new table is produced, a pixel is removed from the design. Because material is taken away with each rendition, every table is unique. Following these set rules of self-destruction, the shape becomes more intricate as it diminishes. As a result, the project is a limited production, made only until the shape is no longer desirable.”

The next table available is without 3 pixels, and sells for 1200 dollars.
