Большое зеркало на стене умножает гостиную в два раза, и добавляет света и воздуха в неосвещенную часть. Зеркальный фартук на кухне выполняет ту же функцию. Фотограф Дмитрий Недыхалов.

Extendable dining table The client specified a high gloss Art Deco style table that could be extendable, using Macassar ebony timber. They had mentioned that they didn't like the idea of the commonly used art deco style base frames, which are a 'U' shaped form sat on a plinth. This table was to be space saving, so a folding top worked well within the designated area this table was to be situated. I used the Art Deco fan style to construct the legs, each section a different thickness to add texture and to form shadows, making the legs interesting to look at. To break up the mass of the dark timber I used a stainless steel inlay to follow all profiles of the design. The idea of using stainless steel was to catch the light and also add a more elegant vista to the table in keeping with the period style. The inlays border the top when open and are also on the top when the table leaves are in the stowed position. There is a dovetailed drawer hidden in the top rails for keeping items in, thus de cluttering the top and overall design. Certainly a statement piece of furniture you can never tire to look at from all angles.
