Tables

A table here is a top and a base, and the two are argued with each other. The base is usually one plated form — spreading where it meets the floor, or drawn from the shape of a falling drop — polished until it reflects the room back at an angle. Tops are one of three things: natural stone, African zebrawood, or eco-board painted by hand.

For a dining room, 1.96 metres seats six without crowding; the longer pieces take eight. Coffee tables sit at 300–375mm and side tables at 530mm, which is the height that works beside a sofa arm rather than in front of it. Length and width can be re-cut; the top material cannot be changed once the slab is chosen.
