Small hall table

Nice table.
What happens when you put that table up against a wall that has a base? I ask because I had a table similar to that one I modified to fit against the wall flush. -
Eric, that's a very good question. Generally the furniture ends up standing out away from the wall by at least the thickness of the base molding. Bookcases frequently end up that way. Of course on carpet they tend to lean forward too because they end up standing on the tack strip. Seems like a good idea to design around that.

OK, so here is another version with some different materials (which I don't like personally) and a picture on the wall.
Who can recognise the artist?
-
Can you zoom in on that picture a bit.
I'll guess it's Tom's work.
-
I had a quick go at this too.
-
Nice work, too Eric. Did you draw that concrete lamp? I saw a thing about it and how they make the shades on one of the design blogs I read.
-
I did, thanks. It is called the Heavy lamp.
Here is another shot, modifying the table to account for the base. I added my Tin Tin rocket too and turned down the house lights

Dear Eric and David,
The original table (the one in the magazine) was designed to accommodate a skirting board in exactly the same way that Eric modified the table. Eric, that is a very nice composition.
Kind regards,
Bob -
Again, nice work Eric.
I like that method of dealing with the skirting board.
-
Thanks again.
I do like the design on this table better than the one I had. It had turned legs and no shelves.
There is a spot in my entry that needs a table like this. I just may make this my next sawdust challenge.
