Buddy is a small and useful piece of furniture that could be placed anywhere within a space and in many different environments. A little server that could act as an occasional object besides a sofa, but also as a free standing solitary piece in a hallway. Its high edge to the surface of the top, resulting in a bowl-like shape, makes all the difference. It gives the opportunity to not only place things on top, but also to keep items inside, which makes the object multifunctional and create a sort of new typology.

The solid wood base contrasts with the cold metal surface of the aluminium bowl, adding a warm filigree character to the object and creates an iconic and graceful appearance.
