Congratulations to SPA Marine Interiors who were the Winners of the Table Award for The International Yacht & Aviation Awards 2017.
SPA Marine Interiors were tasked with creating a computer controlled expanding table in Teak, Burr Chestnut and Stainless Steel. The table had to combine the beautiful wooden properties on the outside and a stunning piece of engineering on the inside. SPA Marine Interiors have over 40 years of experience and expertise in the marine interiors business and have worked closely with naval architects and shipyards to achieve the highest quality of products.
The design brief given to SPA Marine Interiors was to produce a table that could sit 8 people whilst it was closed and up to 16 when it was expanded. The table had to occupy a minimum amount of space in the day but sit a large dinner party in the evening. The table was required to be ‘an experience’ for the guests and a show piece for the vessel.
The specialist skills that were involved in the making of the project include good old fashioned engineering skills born out of logical thought and experience. These skills were blended with computer technology encased within hand crafted joinery and specialist veneering utilising modern materials such as honeycomb aluminium, 16 coats of lacquer and hand burnished to a piano finish. All production was undertaken at at the company’s factory in Leeds, West Yorkshire.
SPA Marine Interiors certainly fulfilled the brief that they were given and delighted the client so much so that the table was relocated to his home in Lake Lugarno so more people could experience it.
