White-painted wooden shapes are set beneath grey and yellow resin to give a gradient effect to this furniture by Brooklyn-based Facture Studio. 
The studio, led by artist Shoba and designer Quincy Ellis, presented the Scale collection at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York last month.

The pieces appear to be formed from different coloured blocks of resin, but this is actually an illusion. They were actually made by pouring a pigmented resin into a mould with a white-painted wooden volume in the centre.
This core is shaped in tiers so that, as the resin drys around it, layers of varying thicknesses are created. The depth of the resin dictates its colour and opacity, so each of the layers looks different.

"The wooden core is crafted and finished with the same attention to detail as the final resin surface because the interplay between it and the resin around it are essential," Ellis told Dezeen. "The resin colour is specially formulated to these thicknesses to achieve different amounts of transparency and to ensure that parts of the core are obscured."

The Scale collection includes a console, a series of side tables, and a circular wall hanging, all in grey and yellow hues.
Facture Studio created different wooden cores for each piece, and employed a different method for setting the designs in order to suit the different shapes.
