The top is a slab of honey amber, deeper than it looks and square on plan, its edges cut square with only the slightest radius. Beneath it stands a single block of cyan, narrower than the slab so the top overhangs on all four sides. In the shade of the overhang the cyan reads at its deepest, and it brightens towards the floor. Where they meet the line is straight and unbroken.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo Plain Blocks, One Overhang, No Third Element\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything about this table is decided by the overhang and the colour pair. The forms themselves are as simple as they can be, two rectangular solids with no taper, no moulding and no foot, so what the eye reads is the shadow gap under the amber slab and the way the two colours sit against each other. Amber over cyan is close to a complementary pairing, which is why the join reads as a hard line rather than a blend even though both parts are translucent: each colour makes the other look more saturated at the boundary. Under the slab the cyan falls into shade and turns a deep teal, then clears to a bright sky blue near its foot, so the block seems to glow from below and the amber above reads heavier than it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 53cm this is a tall side table, level with a sofa arm, so it works at the end of a seating group, beside a bed, or on its own against a wall as a stand. The top is flat, generous and level, and will take a lamp, a tray or a stack of books without any trouble. It suits a position where a light can sit above it, since the amber slab will lay a warm patch on whatever is under the overhang. Against a white wall both colours read at full strength; against a dark one the cyan dominates. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhich Colour Goes On Top, and How Far the Slab Overhangs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce ordered, a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks and a bespoke one 5–6. The order of the colours is the variable that changes most. Which way round they run, since cyan over amber is a quite different object: the cool block on top reads lighter and the warm base grounds it. The overhang, from this generous step to a flush stack where the two blocks share an edge and the table reads as a single column. And the colour pair itself, which can be this amber and cyan, a smoke grey over clear, or a single colour throughout. Both blocks are cut to whatever plan and height you give. The two blocks arrive already joined, in one crate on a pallet; two people should place it.
