Grand Central is a collaboration between Sigrid Strömgren & Sanna Lindström. A collaboration that created an innovation – a new way of expanding a table.

Grand Central is an innovative table that folds out like an origami flower from space-saving occasional table to the central piece of the room.  The tabletop is divided into 22 pieces that folds out in a spectacular  way through its advanced construction. This table has taken advantage of our ability for innovation and problemsolving.

The table draw a lot of attention when shown for the first time at D3 Contest, Design Talents IMM COLOGNE in January 2010.

The patent pending noise-reductive table Silent Whisper cuts the noise by half (10 dB reduction) through its innovative material use & construction.

Silent Whisper effectively minimises scraping and rattling noises. This noise reduction is integrated in the design: invisible for the eye, but unmistakable different for the ears.

Before developing Silent Whisper I spent 6 months fulltime with a group of noise researchers, and devoted two years of my master studies to investigate sounddampening materials & constructions. The material choices are well considerated: During the working process of Silent Whisper I compared and sound tested over 50 material combinations to find the ultimate solution.

Silent Whisper is awarded with Guldsyrsan & Red dot design Award in 2008 . In production by Materia.

Hidden not forgotten is a table with 5 tabletops in one,  with option to expand in four directions. The distance between the tabletops makes temporary storage possible, and gives the ability to shift between different projects, push work inside the table to start up fresh with a new blank tabletop.
