FS177 - The Petite Marble Dining Table: A Journey in Rounded Shapes
Envision a serene moment within a forest, surrounded by towering trees whose round canopies allow only fragmented glimpses of the sky. This sentiment is embodied in the FS177, a petite marble dining table with a circular top and rounded columnar legs, inspired by the aesthetic of a forest walk.
The Journey of Creation
For Felix Schwake, esteemed architect and designer, the shape of the round has always been a symbol of completeness and harmony. The circular table evokes feelings of cozy gatherings, of stories shared around a campfire set deep within the woods. In selecting the marble for this table, he sought a grain that mimicked the view through a tree's branches.
A Timeless Material
Marble, existing for millions of years, carries with it a journey that continues in this artwork. Every scratch, every patina that forms over the years, tells a story of the life surrounding it. Much like the trees in a forest bear marks of time and elements, this marble table will grow in character as time progresses.
Placement and Significance
Be it within a contemporary loft in Manhattan or a traditional chalet in the Alps, this table manages to bring the essence of the forest into the space. The interplay of architecture and interior design is impeccably complemented by such a functional art piece.
The Harmony of Form and Function
While the round table unites people, inviting them to share stories, the round columnar legs provide stability and elegance. It's this harmonious collaboration that makes the table uniquely special.
A Piece for Eternity
Felix Schwake doesn't just craft furniture; he creates heirlooms. This table will not only serve one generation but will also be a gathering spot for succeeding generations, a place for sharing and reminiscing.
