About the Item

The Center-Peace coffee table, handcrafted by master artisan and designer Frank Buschmann, draws inspiration from both the natural world and philosophical thought. The design is rooted in the “interior architecture of a tree,” inspired by a photograph of a decaying tree trunk, where the intricate inner structure is exposed—revealing the union of branches at the center rather than their typical outward appearance. This shift in perspective mirrors the dynamic nature of wood, always in flux. The table’s form also pays homage to the work of Giuseppe Penone, an artist known for his “archaeological” exploration of trees, peeling back layers to reveal their origin. On a metaphysical level, Center-Peace connects with Goethe’s Faust, symbolizing the relentless search for life's essence and inner peace. A unique anecdote about the table’s creation adds depth to its concept: originally crafted with a perfectly circular top, the wood subtly changed after exposure to Madrid's contrasting humidity, shrinking by 1 cm, transforming the circle into an imperceptible oval. This small shift exemplifies the inherent dynamism of wood—an organic material in a constant state of evolution—emphasizing both the technical and aesthetic implications of working with such a living material.
