Duffy london's 'serenity' table harmoniously balances geometries to seemingly defy gravity

DUFFY LONDON — THE DESIGN STUDIO WHOSE DRAMATIC AND DIVERSE BODY OF WORK INCLUDES TABLES MODELED AFTER CROSS-SECTIONS OF THE SEA, AND HAND-CARVED IN HOMAGE TO ANCIENT ARCHITECTURE —

CONTINUES TO PLAY WITH THE CONCEPTS OF WEIGHTLESSNESS, GEOGRAPHY AND ILLUSION WITH ITS LATEST RELEASE. ‘serenity’ is a single-piece console table that seemingly defies gravity, and toys with

our visual perspective in a playful three-dimensional _trompe l’oeil_. drawing from the calm and composure of japanese rock gardens and cairn stones, ‘serenity’ invites contemplation and

aims to create a sense of order from disorder in any home environment. ‘SERENITY’ IS FORMED FROM THREE DISTINCT BLOCKS, EACH ONE MADE OF A POWDER-COATED MILD STEEL, OR HIGHLY POLISHED

STAINLESS STEEL TO CREATE A MIRRORED REFLECTIVE SURFACE. the design team at DUFFY LONDON, led by chris duffy, has balanced these vast geometric forms on top of each other to create a single,

harmonious moment from an otherwise perilous dance. _‘I THINK THAT IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMIND OURSELVES TO HAVE MOMENTS OF STILLNESS AND QUIET IN OUR OFTEN-HECTIC DAY TO DAY LIVES,’_ SAYS

JOE WONHAM, DESIGNER AT DUFFY LONDON. _‘serenity offers a chance to take a moment of reflection, to block out the outside world, and to draw focus from the point of balance.’ _ ‘serenity’

console table — matte finish THE TABLE OFFERS PAUSE FOR THOUGHT AND REFLECTION, REFRESHING THE MIND AND IMBUING ITS IMMEDIATE SURROUNDINGS WITH A MOMENTARY SENSE OF HARMONY, BALANCE AND

CALM. duffy london offers ‘serenity’ — in two finishes; matte and mirror, and is limited to 20 editions. bespoke pieces and larger commissions are available on request. see more about
