Michiel Lelivelt is a third-generation design representative and a follower of his father’s and grandfather’s woodwork passion, united under the Lelivelt family business, running for over one hundred years. ‘My challenge is to make beautiful and functional furniture. Since childhood, I have been interested in architecture and design, and later trained as a carpenter’, explains Michiel. The long experience and the relentless interest in the development of the profession encouraged Michiel to choose his own path and in 2005, become the founder of Stong Wood. From that moment on I keep myself busy with old style timber and wood furniture.’

The birth of the Analogue table series in 2013, illustrates Michiel’s special approach to design. ‘I am convinced that design is not a sketch or a drawing but a creative process. I fit to rely on intuition and feeling as my mind works with the material (wood) to achieve the correct shape, in the process of trying again and again. Over the years, this awareness has grown and I work with more and more confidence in my own real product.’

Analogously, the Analoog table is a good example of this ‘Hand Framed’ approach. The table consists of a solid American walnut wood frame and a ‘berkenplex’ (thickened) sheet veneer. The sturdy yet lightweight and flexible design ensures that the table easily adapts to uneven surfaces. While the aesthetic lines and smooth edges relate to the Art Nouveau and Scandinavian design for a contemporary look that fits in both classic and modern interiors. A very refined dining table. Available for purchase at the OODE webshop.
