Tall Illusion

Essey Original Design

Tall Illusion

Tall Illusion is the vertical interpretation of an idea that redefines perception. Sleeker, taller, and even more present in the room, this table appears like a moment in motion – as if a cloth caught in mid-fall and frozen at that very moment. Designed by John Brauer, Tall Illusion represents the consistent evolution of one of the most fascinating concepts in modern furniture design.

Description

 

The inspiration remains intuitively understandable and at the same time surprising: a softly draping fabric that seemingly effortlessly lays over an invisible structure. Tall Illusion translates this lightness into an upright, almost architectural form, creating its own tension in the space. Due to its height, it becomes the ideal design side table next to a sofa, armchair, or bed – functional and at the same time sculptural.

Made in Germany and 100% hand-formed, each Tall Illusion is unique. No fold is identical, no line exactly repeatable. This deliberate individuality makes each table a one-of-a-kind piece with its own character – an object that is not only designed but shaped. Craftsmanship that remains visible.

The seemingly soft surface is deceptive – underneath lies a stable, load-bearing structure. It is precisely this play between expectation and reality that gives Tall Illusion its special effect. A table that suggests lightness while offering absolute stability.

Tall Illusion is more than a functional addition. It is a deliberately placed accent in the room. An object that does not need to be loud to stand out – but convinces through its form.

Or in other words: A table that does not simply stand – but makes an impact.
