X-Tense Table by Konstantin Achkov Studio
Limited Edition Of 1 Piece
Dimensions: Glass top: D 90 x W 180 cm.
Base: D 55 x W 110 x H 74 cm.
Materials: Resin, glass, and stainless steel.
The X-tense table is a real tensegrity structure, which with its minimalism
of only three elements, visually making the table seem impossible.
Konstantin Achkov is a leading Bulgarian sculptor. He has been developing the idea of applicability of tensegrity structures in furniture and especially in chairs for nearly twenty years. With two scientific papers in progress and international recognition for his contribution to the subject by its discoverer Kenneth Snelson and other leading scientists in
the field, it can be said that tensegrity is one of the greatest themes of his life!
With explicit originality in his designs not only at the structural level but also in the overall form, the tensegrity structures created by the author surprise the viewer with the scene of solid elements supported in space by a complex geometric network of tense ropes. A sense of impossible levitating elements is created! A clear view of loaded and stressed
parts by pre-stressing the structure. Another characteristic of these structures is the intelligent spring system that always returns to its original shape. This allows the chairs to be flexible by responding ergonomically at the backrest or the base to the weight of the user. In this way, they become active systems moving parallel to the person sitting on them. On the other hand, the complexity of conceiving and building tensegrity has given impetus to categorize them as minimalist sculptures with levitating elements from the very beginning.

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.
