GRANVILLE TABLE

The Granville Table was developed at Emily Carr University for BoConcept. Its design details provide multi-functional use, storage, flat-pack shipping, and RTA assembly. The table took inspiration from Vancouver’s changing cityscape with a streamline solution for small-space living. Its effortless transition from table to workstation makes it an ideal element for the needs of the urban user. The table was part of BoConcept’s product line for 5 years.
