The Parachute Jump, a historical landmark punctuating the panorama of Coney Island, influenced the design of this end table.  Once part of the World's Fair, the now defunct ride looms over the rest of the park.  Uhuru captures its essence through mechanical connections on a steel base, crowned with a faceted Ipe top.

The new Coney Island Line is crafted from reclaimed wood taken from the demolished iconic boardwalk.  The Ipe wood, first installed on the boardwalk in the late 1940's, has weathered in the sun, salt, and snow for 70 years.  The design is inspired by the duality of Coney Island- its whimsical, colorful summers and melancholy winters.  The pieces interpret the architecture of the desolate dreamscape: low-rise buildings patched with signs and seasonal layers of paint, beneath the towering old-fashioned rollercoaster.
