Description

This monolithic design takes its inspiration from The Sentinel, a book by Arthur C. Clarke that went on to be made into the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, directed by Stanley Kubrick.

A glass table top seems to balance miraculously on top of toppling monoliths, which appear to be frozen in a permanent state of impending collapse.

This mind-boggling creation appears to the naked eye to be an impossible feat, but in reality it has its foundations in real physics.

Materials: Powder-coated mild steel, polished stainless steel, toughened glass.
Finishes: Available in black, white, and polished stainless steel.
Dimensions: (L)310cm (W)135cm (H)75cm

Design: Christopher Duffy
