Tectra & Morpheus
December 4, 2019
OKHA explores the concept of transition and mutability in the design and function of new coffee and dining tables Tectra & Morpheus.
Marble, a metamorphic rock, is produced by other rock types forming interlocking crystals making it an ideal stone to represent the concept of change and flux. OKHA Creative Director Adam Court has hand selected polished Calcatta Vagli marble for its fluid appearance and contrasting veining which appears as seismic motion immortalized in stone.
“Tectra explores the concept that everything from materials and ideas to anatomic elements are in a perpetual state of flux and that change is our only constant.”
- Creative Director, Adam Court
Tectra is made of three separate “Tectonic” plates or smaller side tables that interlock to combine as Tectra coffee table. Being modular, the design reinforces the concept of a permanently evolving and shifting world at a macro level.
Morpheus draws inspiration from Greek mythology and is named after the Greek God Morpheus. In Greek mythology, Morpheus is associated with shifting shape and form in the context of sleep, and the manifestation of dreams. The double trapezoid shape of the marble tabletop is designed to invite cross table dialogue and communal interaction.
“Morpheus symbolizes metamorphoses and transition bringing form to the subconscious in the shape of dreams.”
- Creative Director, Adam Court
