The two legs spread as they reach the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlue Held in the Top Course of Cubes Only\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfining a colour to the top courses means the blue cubes and the clear ones have to be identical in size, and cubes cast in two colours do not come out identical without work: pigment changes how the material behaves, so the blue ones are cut back to the clear ones rather than the other way round. The boundary between the two is then the thing the eye goes to, so it is kept to a single course with no blue cube left stranded below it. The legs spread by stepping each course outward by a fraction, which is what gives them their splay without any face being cut on an angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands at console height, so this goes where consoles go, and it wants a plain wall: a mass of small cubes turns any pattern behind it into a field of displaced fragments. Side light rakes across the cubes and finds every offset, where a light from directly above flattens them. The blue reads at eye level from across a room, which is the argument for using it in a hall rather than a sitting room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCube Size, Colour Depth and Site Assembly\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBespoke commissions take 5–6 weeks; standard pieces take 3–4. Cube size is a decision at order, and it governs the grain of the whole piece rather than its detail. The blue can be run deeper into the slab, taken to the legs, or replaced from the same stock, and a colourless version is available. Length is cut to order. The console arrives as three parts - two legs and a slab - and is brought together on site along the bearing faces at the head of each leg, which is what lets a console of this length come through a normal door. Each leg is a two-person lift and every face travels sleeved. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue held in the top courses alone belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; legs that splay by stepping each course outward lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and blue-topped cubes along an entrance hall join our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e170cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue and Clear Cast Acrylic Cubes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54016239829339,"sku":"Y171","price":16674.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y171.jpg?v=1790888977","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-and-clear-cube-massed-acrylic-console-table-170cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
