Developed in collaboration with Galerie Vivid, Aldo Bakker’s Black Console represents the simplest design concept for a table: two legs and a surface. The legs are an elongation of the line created by the tabletop. The tabletop and the base of the legs have the same width, giving them equal visual importance. Available in the United States through Les Ateliers Courbet and in Europe through Galerie Vivid, the next Black Console edition 5/8 may be hand-crafted to order with a 12-week lead time. Each edition is delivered with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
Son of jewelry designer Emmy van Leersum and conceptual designer and Droog co-founder Gijs Bakker, Aldo Bakker is a Dutch visual artist and designer whose work spans jewelry, industrial design, and intricate artisanally produced one-offs.
