coffee table

wt made this coffee table for a colleague of mine.   very impressive to say the least.  normally, i would ask him to come in and do a 'guest post' to explain his creation.  however, when you ask him a question about the design process, you get...."well, you need to start with a blank slate, don't you dare think about price, where are the lines? gravity doesn't exist...." it doesn't really make sense and it makes me uncomfortable when he talks like that.

i can say that he envisioned it, drew it, illustrated it in 3D, mocked it up with cardboard, picked out the materials (cumara), had a guy route out the legs, sanded (duh) and oiled the legs up, had the glass made into a cool shape and then put it all together. and BOOM goes the dynamite.






can you say architecture digest?  money shot.
seriously - blown away by this guys talent.  one day he is gonna have a store/showroom/houses he designed full of this stuff.  you can quote me on it. or just find this blog that will forever be on the Internet even after i delete and say - she called it.  libba jay templeton formlery lawrence called it.
