OXYDATION
Kateryna Sokolova
Description
This collection of tables draws inspiration from contemporary architecture, sculpture and research into the materials used, in particular the natural properties of oxidization. It is thus a case of combining 'sustainable' materials such as stone or metal and making them into an architectural shape. The Oxydation tables combine a simple shape with a complicated texture and are a mix of traditional techniques and highly advanced technologies. As it oxidizes, metal can bring some unexpected results: each table is naturally unique and one will certainly discover a myriad of variations in its oxidized top.
Top in oxidised (acid-treated) steel, finished with transparent varnish. Base in Tuscan stone.
Occasional table is made of a Marquina marble base (with water-repellent treatment) and an oxidized golden brass top.
