Charcoal pile table

Disciplines Products

Released 2009

Oiled oak pieces in a circle form the base of this simple living room glass table, held together without glue due to the «wood welding» process used in its production. Its shape is reminiscent of charcoal burning and symbolises a charcoal pile where pieces of wood are stacked conically around a stake. The work takes as its central theme this precursor of oil and stimulates thinking about the future.

Materials: Oak, glass
Size: 25x70cm
Partner: Bern University of Applied Sciences, Wood technology, Biel
