YAKISUGI SIDE TABLE BY NOÉ DUCHAUFOUR-LAWRANCE

The design for ‘Yakisugi‘ was inspired by the eponymous traditional Japanese technique of charring timber to protect its surface. The deliberately simple lines of this occasional table contrast elegantly with the combination of woods oak and walnut from which it is crafted. With a play on light and shade, indoor and outdoor, the coloured streaks of the legs rise in contrasting positions, eventually blending into the crowning table top, highlighting the design’s silhouette. A feat of artisanal craftsmanship celebrating the beauty of the material.
