The Striped Composition Table is a minimalist coffee table by the London-based furniture designer Lewis Kemmenoe. Crafted from turned ash, sapele, and smoked glass, the piece highlights Kemmenoe’s sculptural approach to structure and his sensitivity to the expressive potential of natural materials.
Two contrasting woods, pale ash and richly toned sapele, interlock in alternating bands to form the four components of the table’s base, creating a rhythmic, striped composition that feels both graphic and organic. Joined with precise craftsmanship, these legs support a smoked glass tabletop that rests above in quiet balance. The glass’s warm, dark tint softens the geometry of the structure beneath, introducing a dialogue between the organic and the industrial.
Exhibited at Collectible Brussels 2025 with Max Radford Gallery, the Striped Composition Table exemplifies Kemmenoe’s ongoing exploration of form through material dialogue. His practice, shaped by his fine art background and design training at the Royal College of Art, embraces function while remaining attuned to intuition and process, producing objects that are at once utilitarian, tactile, and subversive.
