DIY Magazine Coffee Table Requires No Cutting or Glue

Vered Zaykovsky put his thinking cap on when he engineered this upcycled table base using copies of Domus magazine. The added weight of the glass top and the support of the metal bottom plate keep the table upright. Check out the gallery after the jump.

This structure uses 6 magazines arranged in a circular pattern, much like a design we feature awhile back. While that plant stand relied on individual pages folded back and was oriented completely vertically, Vered used a much more dynamic and visually appealing approach.

I have to be honest, this design looks somewhat questionable in its practicality. I haven’t had the opportunity to make this yet (don’t have a piece of suitable glass) but I wonder how stable it would be in the real world?

    “Please stop saying it?” Who the hell are you to tell him what words to use? And why on earth do you care?

    Anyway, pretty cool.

    I would also question its practicality. But it makes good photo opportunities.
