New for 2006, and featured in ITV's '60-Minute Makeover' on April 26th, this timber and acrylic
circular dining table plays with notions of weight and gravity and is ideally matched with any transparent
or bent ply furniture, especially where a more organic finish is required than tempered glass.
Apparently
suspended in mid-air, the solid top weighs as much as 70Kg
in Finnish birch ply,
With such a thick surface, edge detailing
is a crucial design element; in Finnish birch, 90 cross-laid
layers create
a subtly architectural patterning of parallel horizontal bands across the entire
circumference. Radiused edges further expose details of its construction. Using
more conventional
materials (clients are free to specify a staved timber of
choice), edges are vertically striated.
The
120mm thick surface contains battery-operated LEDs that refract through
the one piece transparent tubular
pedestal, raising the table on a column of light. In high ambient light levels
the effect is very subtle, but in typical
dining conditions, the pedestal
base throws a strong halo and the cylinder wall emits a diffuse glow.
Battery life is
9-12 months in typical use . . . no wires!
Levi
has been designed to operate in high and low-level modes, as both a dining
table and coffee table.
The low-level variant is also positioned at the correct height for Japanese-style
floor seating. This flexibility is
achieved by the most economical means: the same top fits a 740mm or 360mm
pedestal – clients are able
to order Levi with either – or both – sizes, and interchange them instantly.
There are no mechanical fixings
(once again gravity does the work), and the lighting works identically at
either height.
Unless
otherwise specified, all tops come in an oiled water resistant finish.
Varnish and epoxy resin coated
alternatives are available at extra cost.
Levi
is also available with a pre-cast concrete top in a variety of colourways on
a lead time of 45 days
rather than the usual 30. All tables are made bespoke to order. Worldwide
delivery is possible.
The beautiful mountain region of Levi is home to the finest skiing in Finland.
