2010 Contour Console Table Oak by Samuel Chan

2010 Contour Console Table Oak by Samuel Chan. Part of our Heal's ReDiscovers collection to celebrate our Bicentenary. For Heal's ReDiscovers Samuel Chan has created Contour, a collection of four occasional pieces: an AV unit, coffee table, console and sideboard. Chan's attention to detail acknowledges the Heal's tradition for forward-looking design combined with fine craftsmanship. In the Contour series these priorities are exemplified in the wood-turned 'trumpet' legs, super-thin 10mm sectionsand solid oak cross-band lipping applied entirely by hand. As its name suggests, the curvaceous forms of the Contour collection introduce a new shape to traditionally angular pieces and show innovation in function, technique and form. The spirit of the Contour collection comes from a purist's vision of furniture, a trademark of Samuel's work. At the drawing board, this means a disciplined approach to line and proportion. In production, there is a preoccupation with natural wood and exploring howthe age-old craft of woodworking can create something wholly contemporary. Contours Console table has a single drawer and solid oak turned legs.
