Lacquered Side Table - ASTER Series by Daniel Couttolenc, Lacquered MDF

The ASTER Table by Daniel Couttolenc is a sculptural side table whose design is rooted in the hexagram — the figure formed at the intersection of two triangles, a symbol of duality resolved into balance. In the lacquered MDF version, the form is brought to its most graphic and resolved expression: a professional-grade lacquer finish in which colour and surface are absolutely consistent, the geometry reading without the variation that wood introduces. The result is a piece that is architectural, precise, and quietly bold. Three components make up the ASTER: a side table that separates into two auxiliary surfaces and a serving tray. The lacquered version makes each element legible as a distinct object, the clean surface allowing the hexagram's proportions to be read with particular clarity when the pieces are combined or separated. Handcrafted in Mexico, the lacquered ASTER is available in a range of colours upon request, making it the most customisable piece in the studio's catalogue. Also available in solid Tzalam wood for those who prefer the warmth and variation of natural material. ASTER Table works as a side table, a grouping, or a flexible surface that reconfigures as needed. Its graphic quality suits contemporary, minimal, and design-forward interiors. Daniel Couttolenc Studio creates objects that speak beyond what can be seen. Rooted in sacred geometry and the golden ratio, the studio's collectible furniture — handcrafted in Mexico — is conceived as pieces of harmony: companions that quietly shape the energy of the space around them.
