Terrace is a contemporary wooden coffee table inspired by terrace farming practices employed in mountainous regions of the world. Designed to be functional art, the table has ‘terraces’ carved from the wood to form smooth, sweeping contours and platforms at varying heights. The terraces afford the table a beautiful sculptural quality, whilst the platforms offer sufficient space for work or storage. Terrace offers a new aesthetic topology, and a functionally that is unconventional yet familiar.
