Aluminum and smoked glass coffee table inspired by Larry Bell and part of the AL furniture design series
 

AL - 03 (2023)

The forms presented in AL-03 were heavily influenced by the glass artworks Larry Bell created in the 60’s, as part of the light and space art movement that emerged from Southern California. I had the pleasure of viewing these works in person at Dia: Beacon and was completely entranced by their translucent illusions. 

Continuing the same geometric direction as the preceding AL designs, 2 square planes of aluminum make both L’s that the smoked glass top rests on. Offsetting the L’s visually aligns the two opposing squares, creating negative space to imply the illusion of a singular rectangle. Following Bell’s works, negative space is an equally important element in this design as the positive is.
