The top is a shallow open box of clear acrylic, and under it a group of further boxes of different sizes is stacked and offset so no two sit flush. What holds the piece together visually is the colour: the faces are colourless and every cut edge reads a strong red, so the whole console appears as a red line drawing of itself standing in the air.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eColourless Faces, Every Edge Red\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe effect comes from the material rather than from anything applied to it. The sheet is a fluorescent red, and what that does is entirely a matter of how it presents: a wide face looks almost colourless while a narrow cut edge looks solid red. That puts all of the cutting on show: a saw mark that would vanish on a clear edge sits in the middle of a red line here, so every edge on every box is flatted and flame-polished before assembly, and the boxes are solvent-welded corner by corner rather than butted. The stack is set out so the offsets look casual and the loads do not - each box sits on the one below across a full face, and the top box spans the two widest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA console that reads as an outline rather than a mass belongs where a solid one would block the view: across a window in a hall, or against a pale wall where the red lines have something to sit on. It sits under the height of a standard console, so it works better with a mirror above it than with pictures. Its depth is generous for a hallway, and the offsets mean the underside is not a single void - it will take a pair of baskets in the wider openings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Edge Colour, the Stack, and Moving It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur workshops take 3–4 weeks over a standard piece and 5–6 over a bespoke commission. The edge colour is specified with the order, and the stack can be built to another arrangement or another length. A plain clear version without the fluorescent cast is available if the red is too active for the room. The boxes are welded up here and the console arrives as one piece, because the offsets are what make it stiff and a site-assembled version would not hold square. A console this long will not turn on a half-landing, so check the route first. Two people are wanted, lifting under the widest boxes rather than by the top. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA red line drawing of stacked boxes belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; colourless faces with glowing edges connect with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and an outline for a window in a hall joins 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\u003e68cm\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\u003e50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Acrylic with Fluorescent Edge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54001616912731,"sku":"Y017","price":11948.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y017.jpg?v=1790882346","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-stacked-box-acrylic-console-table-with-red-edges-170cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
