Numerus: The Dialectic of Time and Texture

Numerus isn't just a coffee table; it's a work of artistic sculpture that pushes the boundaries of handmade customization . Its name, meaning "number" or "piece" in Latin, refers to the mathematical and philosophical relationship it establishes with the infinite lines on the coffee table's textural surface.

Form and Mass: An Archetypal Clarity

The coffee table's overall form embodies a dignified and grounded mass, reminiscent of an ancient block of carved stone . Its rectangular body, with its softened corners, evokes a primitive architectural simplicity. This archetypal stance creates a focal point in the space, offering a tranquility that absorbs the chaos surrounding it.

Textural Richness: A Meditation of Repetition

Numerus's true power lies in its texture, comprised of horizontal, rhythmic lines that completely envelop its sides. These lines, created by the patient work of a masterful hand, are like the traces of time itself carved into stone. Each line represents a layer, a period, or a moment; these endless repetitions draw the viewer into a meditative rhythm . This texture proves that the coffee table is not an industrial object, but a unique work of art bearing the fingerprints of its maker .

Surface: The Serenity of Simplicity

A dark stone (or microcement) top has a smooth, matte finish that contrasts with the rough texture of the body. This simplicity elevates the coffee table's primary function as a display platform . The surface allows any object placed on it—a book, a vase, or a plain cup—to be perceived as a compositional element . This dual polarity —textural complexity (body) and surface serenity (table)—transforms the coffee table into a profound, intellectual piece.
