Table-case is a cardboard exhibition structure designed for product showcase. Each structure was created from a single sheet of Tri-wall cardboard to achieve material efficiency. The single sheet was folded into a form to maximize the strength potential of the material, enabling the table to take the load of up to 100 kg.The form was locked in place without any use of glue.

Considering the flexibility of use, the legs of the tables were designed to be detachable. For ease of storage and portability, the table surface was designed with an openable flap to store the legs when not in use. The table also features a handle for easy carrying.

Table-case are cardboard exhibition structures created on the premise of material efficiency and transportation convenience. These exhibition structures were originally created for SingaPlural 2016's recognition showcase, an exhibition featuring over 80 design items of different nature from different designers, and were subsequently used for other events. The requirements from the showcase needed the structure to be flexible for the possibility of displaying at different heights and weights.

To achieve material efficiency, each design was created from a single sheet of Tri-wall Cardboard. The single sheet was folded into a form to maximize the strength potential of the material, enabling the table to take the load of up to 100 kg. The form was locked in place without any use of glue.

Considering the flexibility of use, the legs of the tables were designed to be detachable. 3 lengths were provided for a 650mm height table, a 900mm height table and a 1500 standing panel surface (utilizing the table surface as a base).
