Today, thanks to the multitude of available production technologies, objects can take on any shape and any appearance. The real and the fake, the natural and the artificial, blend into each other in a henceforth uninhibited way. The Return of the Thing console table is made of real wood, whereas The Thing is made of resin coated fibreglass, printed on via water transfer, a dipping process whereby decorative films can be mapped onto 3D objects. The Thing can slide along the console, hiding and revealing the stored items.
