Tansu Style Coffee and End Table
The coffee and end table are a blend of Craftsman and Japanese Tansu influences. Tansu literally means “container” or “chest” and are intended to be portable. Tansu design elements embrace simplicity, minimalism and strong straight lines. There are usually no “legs” to speak of with furniture instead lying flat on the flooring surface. One can see how seamlessly these elements are blended with American Craftsman design sensitives.
