Paper Plane Coffee Table
plankton and I used to fold paper airplanes of all persuasions at our old office. At one point, we had over a dozen of them. Some flew really well, others were just for looks. We actually learned quite a bit and found fun in each taking different approaches to their design. plankton preferred streamlined designs while I folded the hell out of each paper to form some flying origami monster.
This scale paper plane model by UK designer Lorraine Brennan had me foaming at the mouth. It's made of 2mm powder coated steel with silicon insets. A perfect plane - a perfect coffee table.
No plans for production yet but perhaps a copy could be made with simple plywood. Can someone help me?
