This is a picture of the Mimosa Coffee Table by Matt Carr.
The continuous plank of wood creates a simple, yet functional piece of
furniture. Magazines can be held in the center portion of the table, which when
full, would provide literal and visual bottom weight. The symmetrical W shape of
the furniture provides solid base, creating a sturdy coffee table.
This is a picture of a Three Legged Chair by Joaquim
Tenreiro. The pattern created by gluing pieces of wood together creates a beautiful
design. If you were to look at the chair from the front, the shape and color
pattern would create a symmetrical design. In my opinion, the triangular base
creates tension. The two planks in the front provide stability, but most of a
persons weight is put on the back of the chair. The single leg in the back
would support a weight, but any movement would result in the chair falling to
one side.
