The table is cement-based terrazzo treated with a water- and oil-repellent stone sealer. Plastic glides under the base are suitable for indoor and outdoor surfaces. It comes in off-white or light taupe.
Specifications
Overall size: 85 x 85 x 36.5 cm (Off-White Terrazzo, HALCOT85R01). Net weight: 54.00 kg.
Story
Terrazzo as a substance
Jonathan Sabine of MSDS Studio says the studio wanted to work with terrazzo not just as a surface but as a substance, a material with permanence. The form is simple but not symmetrical, and a slight imbalance gives the table its identity.
A base that doubles as a display stand
The intersecting base gives the table visual interest and forms a display stand. Each element is cast as one piece, and the terrazzo has a slightly textured finish with subtle variations that reveal the stone aggregate.
