Foam & Stone
A series of side tables that play with the relationship between hard and soft materials. Under the weight of the marble tabletops, the foam bases take on exaggerated, almost cartoonish shapes; bearing their heavy burden, they search for balance in a playful way. These tables add a tactile dimension to homes, lobbies and receptions: it’s hard to resist touching them to feel what’s what.
