Coral Table
Verona - invited
For the Marmomac 2019, a collaboration between Dustin White (DW Design & Fabrication), Maurizio Barberio (BC ARC & NGRG), and Matteo Generelli (Generelli SA) propose a large format table design featuring a continuous woven minimal surface geometry, to be fabricated in "Palissandro Bronzetto ". The table design strategy generated a support system that takes its inspiration from landscape erosion and coral reef growth patterns with variable diameter members creating a non-repeating, nom-symmetrical, organic and natural support structure. These systems are comprised of seven points of connection to the tabletop and four points of connection to the ground reflecting an idea of growth, branching, and layering overtime.
