Rebar Akhenaten Console

The Akhenaten Console is a striking piece of contemporary functional art. The base structure is composed of electroplated rebar with an antique patina finish, giving it the appearance of aged and weathered brass. This design choice lends a sense of historical depth and gravitas reminiscent of ancient architectural elements while maintaining a modern sculptural aesthetic.

The rebar legs are shaped into elegant curves and loops, which add a fluid, organic quality to the otherwise industrial material. The spiralling cylindrical centrepiece further emphasizes these curves, which run horizontally across the frame, creating a sense of balance and tension. The centrepiece has concentric circle detailing on the caps, reinforcing the geometric precision of the design.

The tabletop is crafted from rainforest marble, a material known for its vibrant, organic veining in green, brown, and red hues, evoking the untamed beauty of a tropical rainforest. This adds a luxurious contrast to the base’s raw, industrial aesthetic, making the table a fusion of nature and structure. The rich, polished marble surface brings a sense of refinement and elegance, ensuring the console remains an artful focal point in any setting.

Altogether, the Akhenaten Console is a sculptural art piece that merges the bold, practical quality of rebar with the luxury of marble, resulting in a highly tactile and visually dynamic work of functional art.
