The middle tables that used usually take place in the middle of the spaces and cause difficulty with the approach problems. For this reason, the service tables are used to open this gap. In order to solve this problem, Yılmaz Dogan has combined two functions in the design of Ripple and developed a dynamic product design which can be both a middle stand and a service table, which travels with an asymmetric arm and moves in the distance. This dynamic motion coincided with Ripple's fluid design lines reflecting from nature with the variability of a drop and the waves formed by that drop.

Yılmaz Dogan, who thinks that the traces and shapes arising from the ethnical cultures and their philosophies are a rich treasure that opens the door to new adventures for a designer; He designed Sufi after his researches on Mevlevi, which blends purity, love and humanism with simplicity and is the product of a 750-year-old culture. Inspired by the “Tennure” dress that the Mevlevi dervishes wore at ceremonies, the Sufi Table is a dynamic design that can serve at different heights. The Sufi can turn into a service and display unit or a meeting table while it is a dining table.
