Strata celebrates the distinct properties of 2 natural materials marble and brass.

The sculptural identity of the dining table is emphasized by the free form top and the fluid base.

The 2 elements barely touch, on 2 points, just the structurally needed contact to assure the equilibrium of the piece.

The dark matte texture of the brass allows it to disappear, to fade into the context. The organic shape of the wrap enhances its immateriality, highlighting the floating fine layer of white marble.

Strata has a dimension of 200 X 105 X 72 cm. It fits 6

Under the cube there are withdrawable soft modules, and inside the cube there is a live tree that is illuminated from the above roof window. This is a place for solitude, meditation and relaxation. Thus, with the help of withdrawable modules, you can create different zones for conversations, board games, and the one who needs to retire can go and have a rest under the tree.

Also, we do not forget about a place for storing clothes. There is a cabinet along one of the walls.

We propose creating a multifunctional space where you can make a choice: either to retire or be together with everybody. The space, clear of all unnecessary items, will take you to another dimension and help you to get tuned to a calm repose. Lot’s of light and air.

In the center of the room there is a functional zoning volume, a white cube, dividing the entire living room into 5 zones: active pastime area, TV area, dressing area, secluded relaxation area and the central area – relaxation area, located inside the white volume.

The furniture was executed 2012.
