'Templum' Console

The 'Templum' Console by French-Lebanese Charles Kalpakian is entirely produced in marble. This minimalist, graphic console encompasses a chiseled cornered top and three faceted pillars of different yet balanced volumes that hold the top like a roof. A cultivated piece of furniture, this console stands like a bridge between contemporary design and the memory of historic temples. Charles Kalpakian's 'Templum' Console is exclusively produced and sold by Galerie BSL in a limited edition of 20 pieces + 4 artist proofs. It can be custom-made in larger dimensions and in other marble colors.

Charles Kalpakian’s design is the result of his mixed inspirations: France his country of residence; Lebanon his country of birth and Street Art, his contemporary artistic culture. These influences take shape through the reinterpretation of motifs from the decorative arts and the history of architecture, filtered by a resolute urban and contemporary culture. The stroke is always clean, even if the gesture resembles calligraphy in space.
