Although the final design is simple in appearance, every aspect of the table is essential and was determined through a series of physical trials and hands-on experiments by the team. This resulted in a well resolved design where the overall frame geometry, leg shape and extruded beam all contribute towards a product that is simple and safe to use and compact when stored. There are few opportunities in the design of contract furniture to genuinely innovate. However, the technical challenges of Fourfold took priority and resulted in a very original response.
Broome Jenkins have many years of experience designing mainly contract furniture for leading manufacturers throughout the UK, Europe, Scandinavia and Far East. Fourfold suited their approach very well, which aims to solve real technical problems and develop new products that are useful, efficient and commercial.
