LEGO MARBLE
Rectangular marble and aluminium console table
LEGO MARBLE - Console with an asymmetrical structure composed of two overlapping elements in marble and cast aluminum. The stone top stands out for its calibrated thickness and beveled legs, joined by concealed plates. The metal volume, crafted using sand-casting techniques and finished by hand, introduces a material contrast that enhances the sculptural composition and the potential for varied assembly configurations.
The LEGO collection is characterized by the combination of two contrasting parts in different materials and with different finishes. Precious and raw, refined and raw gold, shiny and matt black. This apparent oxymoron results in a unity with two cores, one in metal, the other in concrete. The metal is worked by sand casting: a "main model" is used to make a sand mold which will be filled with the molten metal. The fine sand allows you to give a three-dimensional texture to the metal, which is subsequently polished by hand. Hence, the metal is lacquered in any of the paints included in the Visionnaire metal finish selection (e.g. gold, chrome, black nickel, etc.). The material nature of concrete is made even more evident by means of an erosive treatment black lacquering. These products (table and console) can be adjusted in size simply by fixing the fittings of the two parts in different positions.
