Bhinneka Tunggal Ika, our national motto as Indonesians that translated as Unity in Diversity. Therefore the idea of an object that represents the meaning of this Old Javanese phrase.

Bhinneka Table is an art project, supported by NAIL2000. It is a low table with four different shapes of legs, which are visible from seating viewpoint through its glass top table. Each leg is made entirely out of welded nails, and each nail joint is purposely left unfinished to display a contrasting appearance between the industrial-rustic legs and the intricate clear table top.
