Drawing Table by Djoke de Jong

Djoke de Jong
Drawing table, 1993

Inspired by the way children draw, this charmingly simple four-legged table is brought to life using MDF — an engineered wood made from fine wood particles and resin. What sets it apart is its surface: coated in black or green blackboard paint, it invites kids to draw directly on the table itself.

Both playful and practical, the Drawing Table transforms a familiar object into a canvas for imagination, encouraging creativity through everyday interaction.

The Drawing Table is part of the MoMA collection of Dutch design.
