The Staple Table is a low-profile, multi-level aluminium table by Wendy Andreu, built on the same interlocking sheet construction as the Staple Console.
Where the console organises space vertically, the table spreads horizontally. The geometric form produces three distinct surfaces: a primary tabletop, an intermediate shelf, and a smaller lower platform. These levels are not added by separate structural elements; they emerge directly from the folded sheets themselves, each plane continuous with the next. The brushed silver-grey finish gives the piece a quiet, monochromatic presence.
The Staple Series construction uses aluminium sheets folded to shape and welded at the connections, producing an object that reads as continuous rather than assembled. The negative space between levels is deliberate: it gives visual lightness to a material that carries real weight. At low table height, this contrast between material density and apparent lightness is particularly effective.
Part of Inside Out, the Staple Table completes the Staple Series alongside the console, the two pieces demonstrating how the same fabrication logic produces functionally distinct objects. Together they show the range of Wendy Andreu's material investigation within a single collection.

About
Wendy Andreu
Wendy Andreu is a craft designer who aims to communicate through the materials she is using. By experimenting with them, she finds surprising outcomes that can be translated into functional design proposals. She is able to execute any idea that comes to her mind in order to check the potential of it. She likes to think of the bridges between matter, people and space in an open way. In her research, the context has as much importance as the concept, without forgetting the quality of the making and the aesthetic of the pieces.
Wendy Andreu won the Public Prize of the Accessory competition at the Villa Noailles in Hyères (2017) and won the Dorothy Waxman Textile Prize in New-York City (2017). In 2018, she got a grant from the Stimulerings Fund (NL) in order to develop her project Regen. In 2020, she was one of the Rising Talent France during Maison et Objet January edition. She is part of AD 100 France 2024.
She is currently working in Paris XIX where she is developing experimental work as well as commissioned projects for public and private clients.
