Maëlle habite à Angers. Dans son entrée, une petite table brune sert surtout à poser le courrier. Elle l’a reçue de son voisin Nassim, qui n’en avait plus besoin. La table est stable, mais le dessus porte plusieurs marques. Maëlle ne souhaite pas acheter un nouveau meuble. Elle voudrait installer cette table près de la fenêtre du salon pour y mettre deux plantes et quelques livres. Avant de choisir une transformation, elle photographie le meuble et note ses dimensions. Elle veut garder sa forme simple. Son problème principal n’est donc pas la taille de la table, mais son aspect et son rangement.
