Sly Tables, designed by Studio TK, Receives 2021 Green Good Design Award

In its 13th year, the Green GOOD DESIGN program identifies and emphasizes the world’s most important examples of sustainable design and generates awareness around which global companies are doing the best job with ecological and sustainable design for our world environments.

“We’re honored that Sly, which was created by our in-house design team, is a Green Good Design award winner,” said Charlie Bell, President, Studio TK. “Studio TK is continually working to advance our efforts to support sustainable design.”

Sly is a crafted, light-scale occasional table series with a simple, unbalanced approach. Sly is illusory, although the table surface appears to be angled, it is perfectly level. The edge detailing creates a sense of non-conformity to the traditional norms. Available top materials include linoleum, laminate, veneer, and back-painted glass. An exposed plywood edge detail is featured with linoleum tops. Back-painted glass is available in 16 colors.

Sly’s unique base design incorporates three diameters and heights, comprising Side, Occasional, and Coffee Tables. Coffee tables are 13 inches high with a diameter of 36 inches; Occasional tables are 17 inches high with a 26-inch diameter; Side tables are 20 inches high with a diameter of 16 inches. A unique base design in various sizes increases visual interest in a setting when multiple Sly tables are specified, enabling the overlapping and nesting of tables.

Bases can be specified in 16 powdercoat colors. The materiality of the inset top in combination with an expansive base palette allows designers to create iconic lounge, greeting or public settings.
