Metropolitan II Console Table
Console TablesThe Metropolitan II Console takes inspiration from Manhattan’s great skyscrapers, where the relentless repetition of vertical elements creates upward energy and civic ambition never surpassed in architecture.
The base is a series of paired flat rectangular frames, each a precise vertical portal rising from a shared base rail. The repetition creates a colonnade effect of considerable grandeur, casting dramatic shadows as light moves throughout the day.
The flat-faced steel sections are finished in bitumen on brown, a warm, complex tone moving between burnished gold and deeper amber, giving the rigidly geometric structure richness and depth. The generous limestone top, its pale surface providing a calm horizontal counterpoint to the vertical energy beneath, completes a console of architectural ambition and exceptional presence.
All pieces from our Somerset studio, are handmade to order to your exact specifications and available in bespoke sizes with a choice of finishes and tops.
