A Picnic Indoors


Designed by Haiko Cornelissen Architecten, this picNYC table was meant to bring a little bit of your active outdoorsy life indoors. If you love hosting picnics and are unable to because of factors such as weather, loud noise, unsanitary grass, then this table might just be what you are looking for.

The vegetated surface is designed to offer the surreal experience of picnicking indoors, providing an earthy bed on which to nestle a bottle of wine and place fine dishware. As the designers explained: “Suddenly, spilling water becomes a necessity instead of a problem and wine glasses need coasters not to prevent ring stains but to avoid tumbling.”

I love this idea, but only if the bugs aren’t included in the equation.
