Chris Baisa’s Gridloc cocktail table looks complicated, but it isn’t. Slats of birch interlock to form one strong solid piece. Baisa’s inspiration was a pricey collectible — Gianfranco Frattini’s intricately designed 1974 Kyoto table — but he managed to create a low-cost, mass-produced line of tables that achieves the look of engineered complexity with simple assembly. “I solved the puzzle so you don’t have to,” the San Francisco-based designer says. The cocktail table is available at Yolk in Los Angeles, (323) 660-4315; $700. The line also includes a side table ($230) and a medium table ($365).  (Ricardo DeAratanha / LAT)
