The cheerful Inflating Table, both a table and its own package, was originally
made of two large aluminum pizza-pans, which held the inflatable part between
them. In the production series, the pizza pans have been substituted by ad hoc
aluminum parts. By removing the legs and deflating the body of the table the
object can be stored and transported effortlessly.
