NOROCK x TMH x The Local Project
Meet our NRxTMH self-stabilising table base, as showcased by The Local Project.
A collaboration between NOROCK, an award-winning product, and Tom Mark Henry, an award-winning design studio – the NRxTMH exemplifies both form and function, while celebrating the breathtaking West Australian coastline.
Inspired by the rugged rock formations, undulating sand dunes, and vibrant coastal flora of Western Australia, our NRxTMH table base has a sculptural silhouette and timeless colour palette. NOROCK’s partnership with Tom Mark Henry explores the raw beauty and organic textures of the landscape, elevating functional design to an art form which increases the beauty of your space. Our next-generation self-stabilising technology is constantly working to find the perfect equilibrium, put simply — you’ll never have to worry about a wobbly table again.

Bobby’s, in Cronulla, Sydney, is a new seafood restaurant which was designed by Tom Mark Henry. This incredible space is the embodiment of coastal holiday vibes, and our specified collaborative bases serve as both functional elements and aesthetic statements. Tom Mark Henry specified the NRxTMH in dining height Jarrah Brown and our bar height Leeuwin Blue, which operate flawlessly on Bobby’s Travertine paver flooring.
The concept of Bobby’s is in the pursuit of fun and having a good time, and that’s what we resonated with when it came to specifying the NOROCK bases for this venue. They are beautiful, they work well, they seamlessly fit into the concept with the colours that they come in, the venue is by the coast and the colours are inspired by the West Australian coastline so we thought it was a nice fit to then specify them to sit by the water.
We are so proud to see NOROCK’s self-stabilising table bases in issue no. 13 of The Local Project, a publication we have long admired for its commitment to showcasing exceptional design and innovation. Our collaboration with Tom Mark Henry has proven popular with design enthusiasts and professionals worldwide since its launch at Milan Design Week 2023. As our collaborative bases continue to gain traction in projects spanning from Australia to America and Europe, we are excited to see where it lands next.

No more wobbly tables with NOROCK! Their self-stabilising technology is a game changer for the hospitality industry
NOROCK gives us stable tables without having to adjust the glides. Spending less time adjusting our tables means a better customer experience and our team loves it.
Three years on, and we are more convinced than ever of the quality and innovation NOROCK brings to the table (pun intended). A huge thank you for your part in making our restaurant operations smoother and our guest experience more enjoyable!
We love your amazing tables!
NOROCK table bases have been a dream solution to an aspect of dining that has always frustrated the life out of me!
Absolute game changer! We tried NOROCK at our newest location, and after a year of use we are changing out the table bases in our other locations across three states.
Whether I’ve got a thirst at the pub, a hunger at the restaurant, or a coffee at the cafe — I know which table base I want: NOROCK.
Seeing how beautifully NOROCK solves the incredibly frustrating issue of wobbly tables, I cannot imagine why anyone would ever buy a standard table again. The mechanism is failproof and the design is beautiful. Thank you for giving us a product we will never need to think about again.
When I’ve got a hard-earned thirst and an uneven surface to match, I choose NOROCK!
The NOROCK table bases combine a beautiful aesthetic with clever engineering which subtly, but importantly, enhances our guest experience. No more rocking tables!
On a sunny day or a windy wet afternoon, when a customer needs stability, I choose NOROCK!
Having self-stabilising tables in a space with sandstone flooring has saved us so much time and effort, not to mention looks so much better than having a napkin sticking out from underneath a table. They are sturdy and solid while still fitting the aesthetics of the venue.
We love our NOROCK tables, just perfect for a beachside cafe where the weather and wind are contenders for the tables as well as the customers. We also love the different styles and colours offered which really suit our space functionally and aesthetically. Very Insta-worthy and the best tables!
The NOROCK bases have really helped us whilst at the same time looking the part from a design perspective, being simple, clean and sleek engineering.
Our staff are thrilled with the NOROCK Table Bases as they don’t have to waste time running around to fix wobbly tables. As they are truly self-stabilising, customers can move tables and the staff don’t have to worry about re-adjusting as the bases do it all by themselves!
The best thing about NOROCK is the quality. We operate seven days a week, lunch and dinner, 364 days a year, so it’s pretty good that they can handle that kind of rigorous restaurant customer usage, which is pretty heavy-handed. For us to have no problems after two and a half years is amazing!
What I most like about NOROCK is they bring some desirability to dining outside and confidence that our guests won’t experience any negative effects from the tables. They’ve alleviated a lot of the issues I had with outdoor dining.
The NOROCK bases remove the customer frustration of wobbly tables and unsteady food and drinks. Unsightly menus and serviettes stuffed under bases to balance tables have been an issue for both indoor and outdoor dining, NOROCK bases remove the problem elevating the customer experience.
NOROCK tables have eliminated the need for tacky-looking solutions to wobbly tables. They’re the most reliable restaurant tables we have ever worked with.
NOROCK table bases have been a dream solution to an aspect of dining that has always frustrated the life out of me! To have a strong, resilient setting that looks fantastic has helped us realise a fantastic product and service at Charcoal Fish. We are so thrilled and proud to be working with NOROCK table bases.
Wobbly tables have long been one of my biggest pet peeves in hotels and restaurants! I was thrilled to be introduced to NOROCK, it’s a high-quality, well-priced product that really does self-level. We have old concrete factory floors and not a wobbly table insight. I like that these bases don’t rely on bands or other parts that need replacing, they are simple ingenuity and look great, I would use these again and again on future projects and their service is very attentive too!
I love NOROCK, it’s a game-changer. To know that every single time that table is going to be fine in any situation, be it on the footpath, on our flat slabs or on the brick flooring we have in our function space — it’s right every time. To think that we can just drop and run — massive advantage!
NOROCK table bases are fantastic. They are streamline and understated in design and most of all practical. The technology is amazing. I have been using NOROCK bases for years in my cafes and love them. I wouldn’t use anything else.
Your bases are the real deal. Thanks again for bringing your product to my attention!
Wobbly tables are a huge customer annoyance. This is a simple solution to help guarantee customer comfort – we have explored other options, but NOROCK is the best solution.
The team at NOROCK made my day when I discovered them. After spending months agonising over table bases for our marri table tops, Furniture Options pointed me in their direction. We couldn’t be happier with how the table bases finished our project for us.
The design of these tables is revolutionary. Since purchasing we haven’t had to wedge a piece of card to steady the tables – this is a first in table design. Why did we have to wait so long!
As we are right by the ocean corrosion was a major concern of ours along with having uneven planked flooring. Furniture Options suggested using the Esplanade NOROCK Table Base as they are made with high-quality die-cast aluminium. It has stood up to the elements extremely well, while also being a stylish design.
They seem to be indestructible and I can honestly say when you have both types of tables in your venue you realise jut how annoying a rocking table is!
After 25 years in the hospitality industry, we were ecstatic to discover someone had finally produced a table base that is self-stabilizing. They are incredibly easy to use, and save a lot of time & hassle for both our staff & customers.
We are so pleased with the functionality that we are preparing to fit out the rest of the shop with NOROCK.
NOROCK table bases have become the standard for our studio when specifying restaurant furniture. The base engineering has solved a problem that has plagued restaurants for as long as I can remember
We love incorporating NOROCK table bases into our designs because they effortlessly solve the age-old problem of wobbly tables. Their reliability and aesthetic qualities allow us to focus on creating beautiful spaces without compromising on functionality or guest experience.
NOROCK was the clear choice for Busselton Pavilion to pair with our custom designed tabletops created by Ergoline. The discreet, reliable, easy to clean bases provided a great range of flexibility and low-maintenance for the venue’s team while looking great.

We have been thrilled with the NOROCK bases that we specified at UP on The Roof. This concept is on a rooftop terrace where the floor surface is not completely level. The bases are easy to stabilize as they are moved around the space for various size guest parties. We also found them very affordable for such a quality product.
Hospitality is a tough environment for furniture. The demands of high use for multiple users each day, together with the requirement to be moved around often by staff and patrons at a whim place major pressure on the standard of products. To have a piece of furniture stand up to the test is reassuring. Furthermore, for the product to deliver consistency in providing a solid flat surface across different surfaces makes for an easy choice.
When it came to planning the tables for the alfresco area at Will St, we chose NOROCK as the obvious answer to the daily setting of the tables on a sloping uneven brick paved area for a quick hassle free stable solution for the setting of food and drink.
We chose NOROCK as the obvious answer to the daily setting of the tables, for a quick hassle-free stable solution for the setting of food and drink.
The Trail table bases were the obvious, perfect choice for Dandelion. Slim, seamless with the sleek, textural feel that sat perfectly with our custom stone table tops. The look, feel and reliability of a robust NOROCK base is a must-have for any successful hospitality project.
We love your [table] bases and the tech inside them!
