Cable Table reDesign.016


I was watching Get Smart today and thought it'd be fun to make a ridiculous spy table. After all, the spy is the ultimate lifehacker. I was especially inspired by things like the silence cone and the exploding floss, little daily things that they took and made into awesome undercover tools. I sketched out a table with a few radio buttons and speakers, an invisibility button, a skinny screen where you select your weapon and it is then dispensed "under the table" for you, and a main screen for whatever info you need. This entire table can be disguised by a thin overlay material and buttons flush to the surface - either you have the buttons memorized or you can quickly undisguise the table for extensive use. I also collaborated with my Dad by having him redraw most of my original sketch, since medication was making my hands really shaky (as you can see by some of my handwriting)!
