A tribute to the beauty of marble, MENU’s Plinth collection is extended with the addition of rose-coloured marble: Calacatta Viola is an off-white marble with striking purple veining. Equal parts beautiful and timeless, the marble plinth is a sculptural piece in its own right, as well as a sophisticated platform for whatever objects rest upon it. Designed by Norm Architects, Plinth comes in cubic, tall, and low versions.The plinth has long been a much mused-over object. In collaboration with MENU, Norm Architects set out to rethink its uses and to reveal the natural beauty of marble. The result is a series of multifunctional podiums for the home, office or showroom. Handcrafted in Portugal, each piece of marble is carefully selected and shaped into three perfectly aligned forms: a low rectangular version ideal as a statement-making coffee table; a cube perfect as a bedside or side table; and a traditional plinth on which favourite objects can be displayed. The sharp, clean silhouette of each plinth stands in striking contrast to the unique veining of the natural, light-reflecting marble.
