OLIVIER / VERRE / LAITON

Along the cut face of the olive wood, a single vein can be followed until it disappears into shadow.

Even an unlit object belongs to this way of thinking. In a tray, for instance, daylight falling along a curved rim can draw the eye towards the grain of the wood.

SYFA

A fine line of shadow separates each of the four forms. Seen from across the room, they come together beneath the linen shade.

PrecisionIrregularity

Unworked sections of olive wood

Against the straight line of a brass stem, the slightest change in the direction of the grain is easy to see. In the collection, the two lines can be read together.

AIN illuminated

From the doorway, it is the lit patch of wall that first catches the eye. The curve of the wood comes into view a little later.

The collection brings olive wood together with linen, brass and glass. The joints between these materials are easiest to see up close.

Journal

These studio notes look at the grain of olive wood and the way light falls on each piece.

Studio

A dark vein disappears around the edge of an olive-wood block. Turn it a little and the line comes back into view, finer than it seemed at first.

CHAMAL leaves room for such details. A circle cut into the wood holds a glimpse of the wall; a linen shade lets a little light reach the curve beneath it.
