The client wanted to commission a piece that was grounded by the classic refectory table design whilst showing some contemporary flair. With a young family, the client wanted a dining table and bench seat that they, and extended family, could all sit around for many years to come.
The dining table and matching bench seat are made from 5mm thick American Walnut laminations applied to a 25mm Birchwood Ply (sub-straight in a herringbone pattern. The American Walnut theme carries throughout the residence - complementing existing pieces throughout the home.
Whilst embracing the classic refectory construction method, the contemporary tapered leg design grounds the pieces by reducing their visual weight, whilst ensuring optimal strength in the joints where required.
Two pieces of furniture that not only can be enjoyed now, but that future generations will fight for.
