A little more abstract this time around: unlike the word "Portmanteau" itself, "Fontables" are exactly what they sound like.
Alessandro Canepa and Andrea Paulicelli designed "Fontables" for Paris-based Outdoorz Gallery, who shamelessy describe the work as "a new language in design." I don't know if I would go that far, but in the language of design: [Fontables are] produced in a small atelier outside of Milan under the supervision of Alessandro & Andrea."
The tabletop consists of sheet steel (lacquered in black, white or red) while the legs are made of anodized aluminum—not to mention the fact that their height is adjustable, so you can control the kerning, letter-spacing, 'z-index,' etc., as necessary.
Readers are welcome to share their puns in the comments.
