Table Design Contest HealthCare Design 2010

Children’s Hospital Cafeteria


Introduction FurnitureLabTM has been putting graphics on tables for close to twenty years. At our first tradeshow, we pitched the idea of creating completely custom designed tables for restaurants or any kind of project. The reaction wasn’t what we expected: “That’s nice, but do you have anything I can choose from?”

As artistic and creative people, this response never dawned on us, because we couldn’t imagine what would be better than a completely custom table! But we realized that not everyone can come up with table designs easily, so we slowly developed an extensive library of graphic designs customers could choose from. We created designs around popular themes like coffee, food, and sports. We also developed graphic patterns which, like all of our designs, can be adapted to any color scheme.

We have been passionate about custom tables since the day we started because they let you make something that is truly unique. They can be anything you want them to be-colorful, artistic, commercial, or educational. The only limit to what they can be is imagination itself. — This contest has been such a great and inspiring process! It reminds us that tables can do more than just support plates and elbows, they can be a medium for expression, communication and a way to make a place special. Gregory Rapp President FurnitureLab

To judge the competition, we assigned each design a random identification number and put them before a team of 9 judges who had no other information about who did the designs or where they came from. They ranked each design for the following qualities and assigned points as follows:

This contest presented a specific design challenge: design a table for a cafeteria in a children’s hospital. It was really exciting to see all the different designs that came in and how everyone interpreted the concept in their own way. You’ll see lots of eye-catching colorful designs as well as some interactive concepts that seek to engage the person sitting at the table.
