The Float Table

the float table
Design Alan Heller, 2014
Polyethylene
Made in USA by Heller
Float has the distinction of being the only product designed by the late Alan Heller, founder of the brand. The tables, which were originally introduced in 2014, are being reissued and will be available exclusively in white, which highlights and elevates their minimalist shape.
Alan Heller's wares were often witty and playful, like the Gladys Goose Lamp, which he named after his girlfriend's beagle. He was always pushing the boundaries of what was possible with plastic, a material that was once considered cheap and ugly. Heller dinnerware, in particular, was a game-changer, showing that plastic could be beautiful, functional, and durable. Alan Heller's legacy lives on in the many iconic designs he created, which continue to delight and inspire people around the world. He will always be remembered as a visionary designer who brought affordable, high-quality design to the masses, making everyday life more fun and more beautiful.
Float remains the perfect example of modern simplicity. an archetype of the white cube and all that represents a lack of ego coexisting with functionality and great versatility. It can be placed and enjoyed almost anywhere.
