Studio Twenty Seven showcases furniture made entirely from Italian limestone
A series of matching stoneware designs by French designers Francesco Balzano and Valériane Lazard is on display at Studio Twenty Seven gallery in Miami.
The limited-edition Primitif collection is the result of a collaboration between the designers, and includes eight pieces all made of the same material.
Included in the set are a stool, table, bench, side table, coffee table, jars, wall light and paperweight.
Each is carved from beige-coloured Pietra di Medici limestone quarried in Italy, so they all have similar textures and tone. Simple monolithic shapes were also used across the different-sized pieces.
"The design is a tribute to fabulous UK architectural site of Stonehenge," said the designers.
A long pale stone bench is made from two arched bases that support a flat slab of limestone. Adding cohesiveness to the collection, a bedside table titled Gueridon has a similarly thick top and is the same height as the bench.
The Totem series of five stone jars perfectly stack atop each other to form a rounded stone pillar. A cover seals off the design, and can fit on each of the vessels ? all of which are different heights.
"The result of this work is the expression of a minimal discussion drawn by two French designers inspired by timeless lines and functions," said a statement from Studio Twenty Seven.
A coffee table is constructed from four legs with a six-cornered top. The opposite sides are parallel to each other, forming a stretched hexagon shape...
