“As much works of art as they are pieces of furniture, the Abyss Horizon tables will be on display at the PAD London Art and Design show in October, the New York Salon, Art and Design, Park Avenue Armory in November, and at Art Basel in Miami Beach in December. Each of these tables were made with sustainable materials sourced from the forest stewardship council in the U.K. Only 25 will be made and prices will be made available on application for ownership,” reports Hi Consumption.
