Why the Name "Industrial Tank"?

The name "Industrial Tank" was chosen to embody the strength, durability, and resilience that this table brings to any workspace. Much like a tank – a symbol of robustness and endurance – this table is designed to handle the demands of a dynamic office environment. The Industrial Tank offers a solid, stable platform with the unique ability to adjust in height, providing the flexibility that today’s workspaces need. The name reflects the industrial design style, capturing the blend of raw aesthetics with practical functionality that the client envisioned for their shared workspace.

Client Requirements

The client, a forward-thinking corporate office, approached us with a specific vision for a workspace solution:

  • Location: The table would be placed in a shared workspace area, allowing any employee to use it whenever they needed a break from their desk.
  • Adjustable Height: The table needed to have an adjustable height mechanism, enabling employees to switch between sitting and standing positions comfortably.
  • Sturdy and Durable: The client required a robust design that could withstand daily use by multiple people. The table needed to feel stable and reliable in both sitting and standing heights.
  • Industrial Aesthetic: In line with the office’s modern industrial style, the client wanted a table that featured raw, unfinished elements like metal gears, wood grain, and visible mechanical parts, creating a strong visual impact in the space.

The Design and Crafting Process

Creating "Industrial Tank" was a journey of meticulous planning, innovative design, and skilled craftsmanship. Here’s a closer look at the stages of the project:

Initial Concept and Brainstorming

Our design team collaborated with the client to understand their need for a flexible, functional workspace that could serve multiple purposes. We envisioned a table with an industrial aesthetic that included adjustable gears and metal components, enhancing both form and function. After multiple brainstorming sessions, we landed on the idea of combining robust metal elements with a natural wood tabletop, creating a balance between raw strength and warmth.

Material Selection

For the Industrial Tank project, we selected high-quality steel and reclaimed hardwood. The steel provided the strength and industrial appearance that the client wanted, while the reclaimed wood added a touch of warmth and sustainability to the design. Each piece of wood was chosen for its unique grain and character, preserving the natural imperfections that made it one-of-a-kind. The combination of metal and wood perfectly aligned with the client's vision of a raw, unfinished industrial look.

Crafting and Detailing

The crafting process involved shaping and welding the steel frame, followed by precise fitting of the height adjustment mechanism. Our artisans meticulously designed and engineered the table’s adjustable system to ensure smooth transitions between sitting and standing heights. The reclaimed wood tabletop was carefully sanded and polished to retain its natural texture while ensuring durability. The result was a table that balanced rugged industrial elements with a refined, functional surface.

Client Collaboration and Feedback

Throughout the crafting process, we kept the client updated with photos, videos, and meetings to discuss progress. The client was impressed by the attention to detail and the functional features we incorporated, such as the easily adjustable height. Their feedback helped us refine certain aspects, ensuring that the table not only looked robust but also operated smoothly and reliably.

Final Assembly and Quality Check

After several months of craftsmanship and engineering, the Industrial Tank table was ready. Our team conducted a thorough quality check, testing the height adjustment mechanism and ensuring the stability of the table at every level. The final product was a powerful statement piece that exceeded the client’s expectations, blending aesthetics with functionality in a way that would transform their shared workspace.
