ASANA

The Asana table explores the connection between the physical body and design using postures found in yoga. It is inspired by the art of yoga and the physicality of the human body.

This table is designed to look strong, yet light. It has a cantilevered profile to give it strength and stability, while also allowing it to be visually light.

Asana derived from the Sanskrit word = to sit down.The Asana table is inspired by the art of Yoga and the physicality of the human body. Yoga combines strength, beauty and agility, and the Asana table became a starting point to study how certain yoga postures can impact the way an object is seen and manipulated.

This particular table looked at the Warrior pose, which articulates a strong sense of form. The aim was to create a piece that was light, yet strong graphically strong in its composition. When it came to material use, the idea was to capture a sense of duality. By combining stainless with a slim glass lacquered top a synthesis of delicate and solid comes to life.
