Zig Zag Redux Chairs
My line of furniture has a wide variety of pieces, but long absent has been a chair. Things have changed now in a big way. I would like to introduce to you the Redux chair.
I set out to build a modern day take on Rietveld’s classic Zig Zag chair. Using my aluminum joinery and exposed hardware, I joined the panels in a completely Harrison way. The joints are milled out of solid chunks of aluminum and the fasteners are stainless steel. To top it off, these chairs just had to be lacquered red!
We had a great photo shoot in which I asked my friend Sarah to come and participate. You can see the whole shoot here. This is definitely one of my favorite shoots of my work.
Two new tables
I want to share the first look at two new pieces that I am adding to my line. These were done as commissions, but came out so well that I took them down to my photographer and had him do a full photo shoot!
The first is a new dinette table. It features a 4′ diameter glass top and has a concrete core. The concrete has crisscrossing holes through the lower third which lighten the pillar visually. This comfortably seats four.
The next pieces are a pair of end tables based upon my Argon Coffee table. They feature all aluminum verticals which are going to become an option on Argon.
Xenon/Light
I was commissioned to turn my Xenon Pedestal into a lighted Pedestal. Working with LED lights I seamlessly integrated lights that illuminate an object placed on the pedestal and a second light that points down illuminating the base around the piece. I am thrilled to be able to offer this as a modern lighted pedestal for art glass collectors.
The works of the lighting components are completely hidden. The only visual difference between the Xenon/Light and a regular Xenon pedestal are the two light fixtures and the cord coming out of the very base. The transformer is contained in a recess cast into the concrete base and the wires travel in hidden grooves up one of the verticals.
Here you can see the frosted glass which covers the top bank of LED lights. The glass is 3″ square and sits flush with the wood top.
Infinity Wine Cabinet
Introducing the Infinity Wine Cabinet. I am very excited about this piece. It has a great balance of function and sculpture. Infinity continues my tradition of modern liquor cabinets started with the Tangent liquor cabinet.
The base of Infinity is a grid of Stainless steel rods which create a sculptural latticework that just happens to hold 28 bottles of wine. The cabinet above is divided by a glass shelf and can hold numerous glasses.
The back is comprised of aluminum slats that mimic the rods below.
A detail of the rods.
