Wall Console by Jacques Jarrige

This sculptural wall-mounted console by Jacques Jarrige is a refined and expressive example of his signature approach to form, function, and negative space. Hand-carved with intuitive precision, the console appears to emerge organically from the wall—its compact form animated by curves, softened edges, and the quiet interplay between solid and void.

The surface is finished in a rich mahogany stain that deepens the natural grain of the wood and enhances its warmth and sculptural depth. At its center, a recessed open niche is revealed—its interior painted in a striking aqua blue that contrasts beautifully with the console’s dark exterior. This unexpected burst of color infuses the piece with lightness and vibrancy, inviting both curiosity and interaction.

More than a functional surface, the console functions as a wall sculpture—its proportions, angles, and negative spaces carefully balanced to activate the space around it. The niche can serve as a resting place for objects, books, or personal mementos, while also serving as a visual focal point in its own right.

This unique piece embodies Jarrige’s ongoing exploration of the relationship between utility and abstraction. Its floating presence allows it to integrate seamlessly into a variety of interior contexts, from entryways and bedrooms to gallery-like environments.

Custom versions may be commissioned in alternate sizes, finishes, or interior colors to suit a specific setting. Whether installed alone or in a series, the floating console transforms the wall into a dynamic and poetic site of engagement.
