Zenga Bros is continuing to push the needle on the intersection of skateboarding and design. Throughout the year, the design collective has honed in on its "Skate Break" series – a lineup of furniture pieces intended for skateboard use. In its latest Skate Break short film, Canadian skateboarder Andy Anderson shows us just how skate-able the brothers' convertible furniture is, shredding atop a lamp that becomes a rainbow rail and a boardroom table that splits into a pyramid ramp and grind ledge to point out just a few pieces.
"These dream builds are sculptural, skateable objects," Zenga Bros wrote in a statement. "Whether at home, in the office, or out on the street, any space is transformed by these multi-configuration rejuvenation stations. Why Skate Break? To free the mind and invigorate the body. To excite the modern workspace and transform the world."
Zenga Bros also places a quarter pipe hip and jump ramp subtly inside two lounge chairs, and presents a camper van – entitled the "Ramper Camper" – that shifts into a mini ramp, wall ride and box jump. The electric micro house truck morphs into a multi-configuration ramp, equipped with a wooden stove and bookshelf.
As for the Desk Ramp, simply pull a level to unlock the desk from its standing position and release a hidden track that transforms into a ramp. The Lamp Ramp, on the other hand, stands at six feet tall and requires a mere pull of a pin to shift the arched stand forward and lower the lamp down to the floor.
"Skate Break is a project extracted straight from the dream realm by the Zenga Bros and brought to reality through their craftsmanship," added Anderson. "I’ve never had so much fun skating furniture."
Take a closer look at the new Zenga Bros pieces above, and watch Anderson go to work on top of them in the video below.
