Exploding Still Lives

Lisa Sorgini, une artiste dont nous avons déjà parlé sur Fubiz, est l’auteur du projet « The Center Cannot Hold / Explosions Are Not Comfortable ». Sous la forme de natures mortes classiques, elle met en scène des explosions au sein de compositions bien rangées, qui viennent troubler l’ordre de l’image.

Legs protrude through tabletops in Assembly Design's L Series

The L Series by New York studio Assembly Design is a modular collection of shelves and tables supported by poles that poke up through the horizontal surfaces (+ slideshow).

The range of stained-wood furniture currently comprises three tables – L2, L3 and L8C – and a shelving system named L4.2-2. But each can be adapted to suit individual requirements.

“This collection is extremely customisable – especially in terms of finish and configuration,” Assembly Design co-founder Pete Oyler told Dezeen.



“Our hope is that people will find inspiration in the versions we have produced thus far and respond to the vast possibilities to design a piece, or group of pieces, that best complements their home, office or store.”

L2 is a side table with four 36-centimetre-high legs while L3 follows the same form, but is double the length with six legs.

L4.2-2 is even longer and has eight legs that extend up through a low surface to a height of 68 centimetres.

The legs support a further two side-by-side table tops, creating a shelving system which resembles a double-decker table.

Finally L8C is a circular table with eight legs arranged at the intersecting points of a grid.

“The collection was inspired by classic wood joinery, mid 20th century turned legs, and the concept of modularity,” said Oyler.

“Our aim was to create a furniture system that was versatile, designed for both batch and mass production, and had a distinct and vibrant character.”

“Given how streamlined the overall geometries are we wanted to draw attention to what is at the core of this system – the legs,” he added.

The legs are turned using computer numerically controlled (CNC) cutting technology from lacquered ash, natural walnut or white oak, and joined to the tabletops using through-tenon joints, which mean the legs protrude through the table’s surface.

“This method of joinery is ages old and as simple as it is elegant,” added Oyler.

“The L Series champions classic wood joinery in the form of strong legs and proud shoulders.”
