FS190: Capturing the Essence of the Forest in a Marble Table
The FS190 Marble Table embodies the very essence of a walk through the woods, encapsulated in the geometric foundational shapes of a square, triangle, and circle.
Inspiration: A Walk Through the Woods
Imagine a quiet moment in the forest, where a glance upwards reveals a network of branches playing against the sky. It is these impressions that lay the foundation for the FS190 Marble Table. As a piece of functional art, it captures the mood and ambiance of a forest, bringing it directly into your living space.
Material Choice: Marble - A Witness to Time
Marble tells stories spanning millions of years. For the FS190, a particularly expressive marble was selected, its veining reminiscent of the contrast between branches and the sky. This is not just an aesthetic choice but a narrative one, making the table a one-of-a-kind piece.
Design Process: Architecture Meets Art
The design of FS190 represents a harmonious fusion of architecture and art. Every detail has been meticulously planned and executed, particularly the central table foot, derived from the basic shapes of square, triangle, and circle. This foot not only symbolizes stability but also the courage to deviate from traditional designs.
The Setting: A Stage for Life
A dining table is more than just a piece of furniture; it's a witness to countless moments—from family celebrations to profound conversations. The FS190 amplifies these moments, creating the illusion of dining directly within a forest, by a riverside. It's as if nature has come home to you, sitting right at your table.
A Legacy for Generations
Over time, the marble will develop a patina, adding to the table's uniqueness. It becomes a testament to the life happening around it. The table remains not just a work of art, but an heirloom, passing stories from one generation to the next.
