Interplay of Texture: Metal & Stone

Interplay of Texture: Metal & Stone

Industria is driven by the process of material research and rare making. With the versatility of metal, our workshop has experimented with new ways to unveil its beauty, by manipulating its properties — reflected by the human eye — to look like leather, stone, precious metal, or aged minerals. Plush, warm, fabrics soften and add vibrancy to the intensity of steel, and is easily incorporated when creating furniture pieces for the home. In this interplay of soft and hard materials Industria has found comfort in highlighting the elegance of metal through cushioning. 

But against surfaces like stone, or wood, we unlock a more unique interplay, focused on each surface’s subtle nuance in its rawest details. We notice the serene movement of veins across a wood top layered against the blisters of a sand blasted metal base, or the flowing monochrome of precious stone intertwined with hammered metal legs. The introduction of each element, through highlighting of their best features, creates harmony in an otherwise complex piece.

The Vitti Nesting Tables provide a modular solution for smaller spaces requiring a unique sculptural accent with function. The larger table measures 84cm in length, 39cm in width, and 47cm in height while the smaller table measures 56cm in length and width, and 38cm in height. It features stone tops, supported by a pewter creeping steel base with iridescent highlights, in the High Hammered texture.

Precious stone carries a natural elegance as it is, and Industria understands its role to support this. The individual layers of sediment revealed in sections of stone present as nature’s art. And when smoothed and preserved for human touch, it offers its rior – on table art to the interior space, whether in accent, dining table tops, or countertops. The Vitti Nesting Tables feature rounded stone tops, veined with sediment in cool tones of gray and specks of shimmer. They rest on a base of intertwining High Hammered metal “roots” with iridescent highlights to parallel the effect of light reflected on the stone tops. Industria intends to develop this corner of our practice, fusing contrasts in material and character, to achieve a look that is ultimately timeless.

Our work blurs the lines of art and furniture – crafting collections that are sculptural yet practical, innovative yet instant classics.
