All products are designed by Ross Gardam and embody a unique contemporary aesthetic. Bringing lightness and balance to a collection of rich, cohesive materials. The Noon Collection is a series of mirrors, tables and upholstered lounges, subtly exploring the passing of time. Graphic in nature, the Noon Tables offer striking material combinations confined within an outer ring. The top is contained within half-milled legs creating a tension and lightness between the surfaces. The table series is also available in the Noon Tri-Cut finish of Marble, Black Glass and Walnut. The Tri-Cut configuration is referenced throughout the Noon Collection, showcasing different finishes seamlessly in unity. The Mirror is set back slightly from the frame separating the two forms and defining a tension between two surfaces. Framed in three alternating rings of timber in a Walnut, Rock Maple and Walnut combination.
