BLOCK 01 (2023-)Umbra Lucid Ideas 2023 - Toronto, ON
Interior Design Show 2025 - Toronto, ON
Block 01 was recently presented as part of the Prototype Platform, exhibited at the
2025 Interior Design Show.
Block 01 juxtaposes its monolithic form and rigid geometry, which
draw inspiration from the Brutalist architecture, with the ethereal
qualities of lightness and transparency, to
create a versatile piece of furniture that can be used as a stool, side
table, or object d’art for the home.
The countersunk legs are arranged in a quincunx pattern, structurally
offering the optimal balanced weight distribution. Entirely composed of transparent materials, the work creates a sense of mass through the repetition
of clear elements, creating a
visual experience that also challenges the viewer’s perception of solidity and fragility.
