An object becomes embodied through use and adoration, transcending its ‘intended function’ to become something else entirely—a gateway between our interior and exterior lives. The Arc is a side table, plinth, and sideboard and originated as something else entirely. Created in 2018 for a Lightly photoshoot, the push and play of hands reframed a functional prop into an object of significance.
In Renaissance painting, the arch symbolizes a threshold—a distinguished marker: the every day from the sacred, the outside from the inside.
The Arc Table is a visible example: a functional object transformed by human interaction. Designed in Melbourne and handmade in small numbers, the Arc raw aluminium anchors the senses, becoming quietly significant in your day-to-day life. It is designed to bear witness to your most cherished, mundane, and precious moments. You can put a plant, light, or magazine on it.
