Ashby Coffee Table-Rectangle Coffee Tables By carving a generous opening

adding a refined finish to its relaxed form

creating a sofa that feels as impressive as it does inviting

Alice's design is built around generous curves

giving the objects placed on it just as much presence as the table itself

The stepped legs reference traditional joinery, while the broad square top and clean proportions give the piece a more modern presence. We chose burl veneer for the tabletop because it introduces subtle movement without overwhelming the design.
