Trestle table "Helvetica-Black"
About the Item
The hallmark of a skilled craftsman lies in their deep understanding of the wood they work with and their ability to establish a dialogue with it. They must balance form and structure while considering the natural fluctuations and transformations the material will undergo over time, influenced by temperature, humidity, and external forces. For instance, a tabletop may expand, contract, or develop a slight curve, and it's crucial to accommodate these changes without compromising the integrity of the piece. In this instance, the table's top is ingeniously attached to the legs, allowing it to "float" on the structure, preventing cracks or warping.
This meticulous process mirrors the artisan's ethical and philosophical stance. Frank Buschmann views woodworking joints not just as aesthetic or functional elements, but as metaphors for new possibilities or necessary compromises. They teach us to embrace limitations while preserving our freedom.
Your table will arrive fully assembled, yet as demonstrated in the video, disassembling the top from the structure is straightforward for convenient handling in tight spaces. Only a hammer and a gentle touch are required for reassembly.

Frank buschmann
Frank Buschmann (1969-Pinetown, South Africa), artist / craftsman /designer .
Trained as a industrial designer and cabinetmaker. Of German origin, currently living in Galicia, Spain. He spent his childhood in South Africa and Nigeria, his adolescence and education in Germany, where he studied cabinetmaking at the Karlsruhe School of Crafts. In the Netherlands he studied Industrial Design at the Design Academy in Eindhoven, where he has been later teaching in the Master "man and humanity". Frank argues that the mastery of a trade is a carrier of tools exemplary for the sustainability of the future. Being a master of a trade is not reduced to the virtuosity of handling some techniques but also supposes a long learning to recognize and cultivate specific attitudes and values. With this approach, Frank intends to recover and maintain the knowledge and practice, not only of the traditional techniques and processes of cabinetmaking, but also its values: patience, intuition and the search for perfection. The virtuous management of techniques goes through the learning of values and attitudes and, all of them, he considers, are universal tools needed to deal with the complexity of the future.
