Terranova by Khouri Guzman Bunce Lininger is a very unusual coffee table: paradoxically monolithic and lithe, Terranova is hewn from a single block of statuary marble and set atop a solid four-prong silicone bronze base. Offered as a coffee table and side table, Terranova features deep V-shaped cuts that highlight the beauty and grandeur of the marble while also revealing its own construction. In this way, Terranova has a design transparency that belies the material’s substance, so the table doesn’t look bluky. These fissures give Terranova a sense of lightness that contrasts with the marble’s mass; various custom sizes and other metal finishes are available.
