Eco-Home Pick of the Week: MDC Interiors’ Glow Table by Leslie Hedrick
A little bit rustic, a little bit sci-fi, a whole lot eco-friendly. The Glow Table by MDC Interiors incorporates green technology materials like recycled pallet wood, glass, steel and concrete, creating a unique look that effortlessly combines industrial and rustic.
And surely you didn’t miss the accent lighting? The illuminated well depressions are perfect for holding a glass, and even light up your drink from beneath for an eye-catching effect you can adjust with a dimmer switch–energy saving green technology. The glowing drink wells are a surprising addition, but they aren’t out of place at all in this modern-rustic hybrid.
As society moves more toward green technology, we’re seeing urban and earthy styles come together in new and exciting ways. The green technology in the Glow Table is a brilliant example blending both worlds. This piece lends an earthy feeling to urban settings, with natural pallet wood and simple, straightforward lines. On the other hand, the concrete and illuminated wells lend a contemporary edge to more natural environments that showcase wood and eco-friendly elements.
MDC Interiors calls themselves a “creative finish company,” probably because they provide such a variety of interior decorating and finishing services. It’s virtually impossible to slap a label on them. You could contact them about a mural or faux finishing, or meet with their team to have them custom design and build a completely unique piece of furniture. When designing furniture, MDC Interiors favors green technology that minimizes their carbon footprint. They also feel that recycled and reclaimed materials have unique personalities–including aesthetics and performance you won’t find in conventional manufactured pieces.
Whether you love it or hate it, the Glow Table definitely has personality.
