This project investigates how eating can be spatially framed as a public and social condition rather than a purely convivial gesture. A table was designed as a linear landscape composed of found materials collected from the surroundings, including plastic fragments, burnt soil, ash, and agricultural residues. These elements were integrated into the surface and structure of the table, replacing conventional decorative solutions with a material system directly referencing the site. Suspended herbs positioned above the table allowed participants to actively modify flavors during the meal, introducing controlled interaction into the spatial setup, creating a deliberate contrast between rural agricoltural techniques and extractive material traces.
