About the Item
Crinkle Crankle Table by Dirk Meylaerts
Dimensions: W 85 x D 210 x H 74 cm
Materials: Pearwood.
To efficiently generate a volume using a minimal amount of material, I employ the concept akin to the British “crinkle crankle” wall technique, in which a single layer of bricks sustains their stability. In my approach, I employ small boards that, when combined, form a sturdy and functional trestle or tripod.
Biography:
After a short career as an actor and dancer in Jan Fabre’s theatre piece The Power of Theatrical Madness, he decided to pursue a career in furniture making. He studied cabinetmaking at Les Arts et Metiers in Brussels and trained under master cabinet maker Ralf Hillenbrand, who taught him all the technical aspects of the craft. After three years, he began working as an independent cabinet maker and designer, a career that spanned 25 years. In 2003, he organized several auction sales of prototypes by fellow designers, in collaboration with the auction house Pierre Bergé in Brussels. In 2006, he founded D&A Lab, a company that produced limited series of functional design objects, conceived by contemporary artists such as Jonathan Monk, Pierre Bismuth, Ann Veronica Janssens, Koen Van den Broek, and many others. The company regularly participated in Design Basel, Design Miami, Form London, and other events. In 2012, he was invited to become the director of production at the Fondation des Galeries Lafayette in Paris, a role that allowed him to collaborate with artists like Lutz Bacher, Hella Jongerius, Katinka Bock, Tarik Kiswanson, and Martin Margiela. In 2020, like many others, the Corona pandemic led him to reassess his life’s work. Together with his family, he decided to leave the city and move to the French countryside to rekindle his old passion for cabinetmaking.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.

Table for Artists by Dirk Meylaerts
Dimensions: W 80 x D 192 x H 74 cm
Materials: Pearwood.
"I wanted to create a light table that can be used as a polyvalent desk. An elegant solution for this multifunctionality is to make tabletop and feet independent. Moreover, this allows me to give the trestles a sculptural quality. The tabletop is made of pearwood boards glued together, supported by two beams that are fixed permanently with long dovetails. The beams allow the tabletop to breathe freely."

Interference Table by Dirk Meylaerts
Dimensions: W 120 x D 400 x H 74 cm
Materials: Walnut.
Also available in different dimensions. Please contact us.
The slits between the three boards of the tabletop allow an interference between the sleek surface at the top and the complex structure underneath, and between the hands and the feet of the one who is sitting at the table. The central beam underneath functions as the backbone of the table, keeping everything together. The table can be dismantled.

IPN Table by Dirk Meylaerts

IPN Table by Dirk Meylaerts
Dimensions: W 90 x D 300 x H 74 cm
Materials: Steel, Pearwood.
Generally, a tabletop can be constructed with boards used length or width-wise. When one uses the boards lengthwise, the tabletop cannot be longer than the size of the tree. A tabletop assembled in width, on the other hand, has the advantage of not being limited in length size: in theory, you can multiply the boards endlessly and create a very long table. I use two metal beams (available in any length) to support this very long tabletop. This system allows the boards their necessary leeway. The tabletop can be fixed to the metal beams by two bolts. Two trestles constitute the feet of the table. They can be put at the end of the table, or more towards the center, as one wishes.
