Dining table pod

" 'Kure' is a family dining table concept created by relatively unknown Turkish designer Fatih Can Sarioz. It is pure design at its best: practical, beautiful and innovative.

Can Sarioz says his inspiration for the table came from thinking about a budding flower that can be opened and closed at will. When open, Kure becomes a full-fledged dinning table; closed, it resembles a sphere-shaped futuristic pod.

A light source fitted at the center of the table emits a blue light from the base. The table accommodates six dining chairs.

Can Sarioz received widespread accolades for the design and is working on getting Kure onto the market."

This is a cool dining table. I hope they do get to actually make some. I'd force my parents to buy one so I can show off how cool I am to my friends. They should also make something that has an automatic cleaner in it so I wouldn't have to do it!
