Bespoke Table Detailing
Drawing significant inspiration from immersive dining experiences offered by restaurants like Le Petit Chef and Taste Cinema, this table concept was designed to seamlessly blend dining with cinematic entertainment. I envisioned an animation similar to that of Le Petit Chef, but featuring characters from the movie about to be screened. Observing the experience from various perspectives at Le Petit Chef, I noticed that the server’s act of bringing food to the table often disrupted the immersive atmosphere. This observation motivated me to adopt a different approach.
Table Animation
This is a video animation of how the stepper motor rotates the table to 0.5º accuracy. As the waiter loads each bowl or plate into the recessed groves, the motorised lazy susan inside rotates to 90º; once all the bowls/plates are loaded and the animation on the table stops, the motorised lazy susan lifts up to magically reveal the food to the customers.
