Gamba Coffee Table – Terrazza Top

by Tara Aftab

Gamba Coffee Table orchestrates a collision between the industrial and the geological. Its foundation is architectural: heavy, faceted pylons of stainless steel that anchor the piece with a brutalist confidence. Resting atop this mirror-polished framework is a monolithic slab of Terrazza stone, selected for its complex grain and tactile warmth.

This juxtaposition creates a dynamic visual dialogue, the cold, precise reflection of the metal contrasting against the ancient, matte density of the stone. Commissioned as a functional sculpture, the Gamba does not merely serve a room; it grounds it, balancing raw materiality with refined engineering to create a centerpiece of enduring authority.
