This remarkable side table in dappled brass and blackened steel, is not just a work of supreme craftsmanship, but, with its geometric legs and unusual top (divided into two separate planes), one which achieves an elegance borne of simplicity.
Drawing from his knowledge of art and design (in addition to his architectural expertise), Douglas Fanning continually pushes the boundaries between form and physics to create clean, fluid, yet uncompromisingly daring pieces. In short, his multi-disciplined work harnesses a seamless creative dialogue between intellectual exploration and the organic realization of ideas.
