The Design
About Tura テーブル
トゥーラテーブルは、強靭性と歴史の象徴であるトゥーラ石で築かれたピラミッドからインスピレーションを得ています。この影響が名称とデザインを形成し、古代と現代の美学を融合させました。石のような3つのベースを特徴とし、ファイバーグラスで製作することで石の質感を再現しながら重量を軽減しています。シリコン接着で固定されたシームレスなガラス天板が、下部の力強い質感と対照をなしています。ベースが安定性を提供する一方、ガラスは軽やかさと機能性を加えています。この歴史と現代的な職人技の融合により、トゥーラテーブルは時代を超越したステートメントピースとなっています。
