Dezeen Showroom: two L-shaped aluminium sheets create “the illusion of a single rectangular base” in this characterfully geometric coffee table by New York furniture designer Orlando Pippig.

A thick slab of smoked glass tops off the AL-03 table, both concealing and revealing the base structure underneath depending on the angle from which it is viewed.

The design is a homage to the monumental glass sculptures created in the 1960s by American artist Larry Bell – a leading figure of Southern California’s Light and Space movement.

“Following Bell’s works, negative space is an equally important element in this design as the positive is,” Pippig said.

“Every component of the table is based on simple geometry: the addition of squares into rectangles,” he added. “Offsetting the Ls visually aligns the two opposing squares, creating a dialogue of negative-positive space to imply the illusion of a single rectangular base.”

The aluminium base is available in a matte brushed finish or a shiny waxed version to suit different interiors.
