The [S] Table was created as a site-specific piece. However, it may exist in any social context as a “third wheel” of sorts. Its formal expression is created via two parts that interact together to create a stable eating/working surface and is intended to evoke conversation and provide various zones of interaction between users. Therefore, the overall size and materiality are adaptable to any setting, making it secondary to its overall form and spirit. In this instance, white oak was chosen to create a balance between the raised wood platform and the slate floor of the apartment. The table acts like a hinge, bridging the surrounding functional zones, one to the next. Its tongue and groove assembly of overlapping joinery at the two ends celebrates the end grain of wood while also providing for greater lateral stability. The linear cutouts provide a sense of lightness, placing no emphasis on any one particular surface. Once the Glass Top is placed atop the wood base, the usable surface increases allowing it to function more formally.

Steuben Glass completed its special commission for The Greenbrier. Steuben has created a crystal trophy for The Greenbrier Classic, based upon The Greenbrier’s iconic Springhouse, crowned with a sterling silver golfer. The fluting in the dome was created by copper wheel engraving, a Steuben specialty and rare 17th century technique practiced by few artisans in the world. The trophy, measuring nearly three feet high and weighing 60 pounds, will reside in the resort’s lower lobby. Each side of the walnut base has an embedded crystal block where the names of each year’s winner will be engraved. In addition, the winner of the Classic, a PGA TOUR, FedEx Cup event, will receive a companion piece, echoing the iconic Springhouse in its design. This piece is a prime example of Steuben executing a unique, custom-made special commission to a client’s exacting specifications.
