A low, self-contained volume that settles into space with quiet certainty. Plinth appears as a reduced, geometric object — recalling both an architectural base and a naturally formed mass. Its proportions remain restrained, its presence grounded, establishing a clear point without demanding attention.
The upper surface introduces a distinct character. A naguri finish — a traditional, hand-carved texture — forms a subtly articulated top that softens the solidity of the object while refining the experience of sitting. This is not decorative, but material in essence: the depth and variability of solid wood made tangible. The naguri surface is visually held between a sequence of concentric half-cylindrical volumes, creating a tension between order and irregularity — between geometry and organic formation.
Below, the smooth, veneered half-cylindrical elements form a stable base, their continuous surfaces reinforcing the clarity of the composition. The object is part of a broader formal language, sharing its logic with the Laying Roman piece. Its construction follows a sculptural approach, where the form emerges through shaping mass rather than assembling parts.
It is not limited to a single function. It can act as a seat, a side element, or a plinth for objects — its use defined by context rather than prescription. A stable, tactile presence within a space, where material and proportion take precedence over function.
