The coffee table Matrioska was designed to provide flexibility. The set has three double-surfaced tables, which are supported by metal pieces on wheels. The smaller tables nest into the bigger one and can be moved to create diverse combinations. The design of Matrioska recalls math symbols. The tabletop was inspired on the subtraction symbol. The double usage surface occupies a smaller area and allows the nesting of the smaller tables. The table legs resemble the addition and subtraction symbols, indicating the ability to create various compositions and to increase the surface area.
