Defa

DEFA TABLES are built around the single volume of a glass brick, elevated as if on a pedestal by legs in different variations: walnut wood, red and blue colored MDF and burnt pear wood. Tomà’s research on glass casting led him to look at construction glass bricks with new eyes. These blocks speak of a vanishing European industry. One that has quietly disappeared over the past two decades. German production, for instance, came to an end in 2005, making the “made in Germany” bricks, with their distinctive greenish tint, the last of their kind. All the glass bricks Tomà works with are limited. Among them, 430mm-square made in “Italy” glass blocks, designed in 1998 by Renzo Piano for the Hermès headquarters in Tokyo.
