for ROCHE BOBOIS PARIS

Marble has often been treated as a symbol of luxury. Its weight and texture have been considered a sign of luxury.In this console, the combination of marble and MDF gives the material a lightness and flatness that slightly shifts the contours of the concept of luxury. The curved MDF not only supports the structure but also takes on the fragility of the thinly sliced marble. The striking colors and parallelogram form cause the material to lose its volume, creating a flat, graphical effect.
