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originally made of two large aluminum pizza-pans, which held the inflatable part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.
