I'm in the design centers in New York - where we have many such buildings and hundreds of showrooms - sourcing furnishings for clients every week. Racing around from showroom to showroom with my "shopping list", it's easy to glaze over, especially when looking for an item as common as a contemporary glass coffee table.
So when one jumps out at me, as did this two-tiered table from Disegno by James Dipersia at the NYDC, it stopped me in my tracks. Not a big fan of tiered tables, this one caught me by surprise. Beautifully designed, its profile suggests a graceful sculpture with two framed glass tiers in perfect balance over its fluidly arced legs.
