The custom Stones Table is a puzzle-like table made of 6 separate odd-shaped components that combine into a single rectangular coffee table (guided by the Golden Mean) or separated and spread throughout a room. The Stones are like rocks at the beach, or in a Japanese garden. Designed using a three-dimensional Voronoi tessellation algorithm, we fabricated the piece Nebraska from our computer model.

Jury Comments: A delightfully inventive parts to the whole design that is interactive and infinitely scalable. The individual parts each have their own identity and yet can be composed to recall their origins – a prototypical table…intelligent design.
