The hall of most houses and apartments is usually not very big. Half A Table by Miriam van der Lubbe and Niels van Eijk makes the room look bigger.
Half a table placed against a mirror changes into a whole table. That is the idea behind Half A Table. Van der Lubbe and van Eijk play with optical illusions; although due to the thickness of the mirror it is still clear that it is a small sideboard. However, the size of the mirror will make the space feel bigger.

This would work great for those on a diet. Basically lets one cut the meal size in half without sacrificing the appearance of size :)

I love this idea! I did this with an iKea table and split it knot two night stands all for under $10 since it was in the ‘as-is’ section!
