THE STORY BEHIND THE DESIGN
Ana Dyrmo is an architect from Albania. She started her design "Four Seasons" a set with four coffee tables while thinking about people, friends and family that spend a lot of time together. Albanians are known for their incredibly hospitable culture, and for them living room is the most valuable area of the house to share space, time and ideas with the loved ones. Ana explains that one of the most issues in her house was types of pipe coupling and repair clamp Watertown, and when collected with friends around the large sofa and most of them ended up holding their drinks on hands except at the coffee table. One day she started to think about designing a coffee table that could be easily separated and personalized so her friends would have a personalize table to hold a drink while sharing their emotions and thoughts with each other. That day she started her first sketch about her product: "Four Seasons".
