These angular pieces started from a walnut cube designed as a low table to go at the end of a sofa. Pleased with the result Rupert, when thinking how to develop it further, felt that the scale was important as well as the proportions. Rather than scaling it up to make it a more normal table height, he added an upside down pyramid on which sits a glass top allowing you to see the interesting juxtaposition of shapes underneath.

In his last exhibition, Rupert combined wood with glass to provide what appear to be unusually expansive tables and desks. For such pieces the materials complement one another, offering a real sense of solid form and structure while giving full play to light and space and hint to the complex, free standing sculptures of Sol le Witt.
