Zenga Bros is a Vancouver-based multidisciplinary artist, designer, and creative duo that takes every possible opportunity to expand their creative vision and impart it in producing excitingly unconventional furniture pieces. Recently, they designed the Skate Break series, a lineup of custom-built convertible furniture intended for skateboard use.
To turn their vision into a reality, Zenga Bros teamed up with Andy Anderson, a world-renowned professional skateboarder, and turned everyday objects and spaces into skateboarding ramps. This eclectic Skate Break series comprises mainly a transformable lamp ramp, a six-person boardroom, a standing desk, and a Ramper Camper for the outdoors. All these multipurpose furniture pieces are tried and tested by Andy Anderson with his skateboarding.
First is a six feet tall steel lamp, consisting of an arched stand and a huge flower-shaped lampshade. As you pull a release pin, the arched stand tilts forward and the lamp lowers to the floor to invite skateboarders.
Meanwhile, the standing desk made of fir and plywood stylishly transforms into a desk ramp. With the pull of a lever, the desk is released from its standing position, and a hidden track is revealed for the skaters to take a break. The six-person boardroom table is made of fir and painted steel. It turns into a pyramid ramp and back to an immersive workspace in a jiffy.
Out on the streets, the Ramper Camper is an electric micro house truck morphed into a multi-configuration ramp, equipped with a wood stove and bookshelf.

The brothers say, “These dream builds are sculptural, skateable objects. 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 with their exciting Skate Break series not only transforms the work or living spaces but allows the viewers to have a little shift of perspective to see potential in ordinary, everyday things just like they do.
