The fields of furniture design and architecture overlap a great deal, and the Brick Collection Table really solidifies this point. Like projects made to either scale, this dining table or desk has not only been constructed for use by the human body, but it features a material that's typical of building.
The H Furniture product is one of several in a series that embodies this masonry assembly. Thin slivers of clay blocks have been arranged against a timber lattice, spacing the masonry out in the place of mortar. The earthy rectangular components come in a variety of colors and textures and create a bit of contrast against the pale wood. The Brick Collection Table is a wonderfully contemporary piece that complements its built setting.
