X+L 01 Coffee Table

x+l stands for Xander Vervoort and Leon van Boxtel - Amsterdam-based designers whose collaboration with the craftsmen of Phantoms Hands in India is an homage to mid-century design and the raw beauty of timber. The x+l Coffee Table is a low coffee table made entirely from solid teak wood. The legs are skilfully shaped by hand and are an homage to the architectural elements found in Le Corbusier’s modernist buildings in Chandigarh. The table is available in two finish options - a burnished finish or smooth finish. For the burnished option, the table surface is deliberately brushed with steel to give it some texture and draw out the tactile and visual rawness of wood.

ABOUT x+l: Xander Vervoort and Leon van Boxtel are designers based in Amsterdam with a background in theatre and art, who founded their studio in 1996. Their inspiration often comes from art and architecture with an appreciation for basic structures, honest materials and simplicity of thought. Working together with the makers in India required them to align their ways of thinking, allowing for experiments without necessary outcomes, the result being an homage to mid-century design and the raw beauty of timber.
