Description
The Costura coffee table explores the universe of basting, it is a piece with a light and delicate look. The wood of the feet is treated as a 'thread' that is “sewn” into the top converging on the central gap that is in evidence, just like the button on a piece of tailoring. The position of the solid feet leaves the laminate top with cantilever corners, providing a feeling of lightness.
Produced with wood from the Japanese Raisin tree. Brought from the orient in the 70s, this species developed mainly in the south of the country and is now considered invasive. The animals prefer its fruits to the native ones and spread thousands of seeds in the forest. Over the years, native trees are losing ground to Japanese raisins, which can provide fruits to feed the fauna for only two or three weeks, unlike the diversity of native trees that produce fruits throughout the year. Thus, its use in the production of furniture helps in the reconstruction of the environment, allowing native species to develop again.
